テーマ:Educational Attainment and Wage Inequality in Thailand: A Quantile Regression Analysis from 2009 to 2018

要旨

This paper explores the relationship between educational levels and income inequality of people living in the central region of Thailand during 2009 and 2018. We estimate Mincerian wage equations using ordinary least squares and quantile regression. We find that wage distribution in Thailand as a result of educational levels has improved during the period of study. Grouping the population by educational level, it was found that within-group inequality is the largest among university graduates and the largest decrease in the spread is also found among those with university degrees or higher. Similarly, primary school graduates also record the smallest within-groups inequality and the smallest decrease in the spread. The between-groups inequality has also shrunk between university graduates and other educational levels. The improvement in income distribution is mainly caused by the decrease in the wage gap around the middle (q25-q75) of the income quantiles while leaving wage differentials at both ends relatively unchanged.
