abstract: 'Earnings of people with intellectual and developmental disability (IDD)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in a labor market can be a useful indicator of the quality of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, economic mobility, and the quality of life of people with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disabilities. To develop a more complete picture of employment outcomes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for people with disabilities, weekly wage was examined applying quantile
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regression technique. Rehabilitation Services Administration Case
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Service Report (RSA-911) data from FY 2014 was used for both Ordinary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Least Square (OLS) and quantile regression analyses. Quantile regression
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
technique allows us to analyze a set of exploratory variables at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
different quantiles of the weekly wage distribution in comparison with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OLS estimation. Results suggest that the income disparity is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significant, particularly at more extreme ends of quantiles, which is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the lower or higher weekly wage distribution. Findings indicated that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
males earned more than females, individuals with no significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disability earned more than individuals with the most significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disability, individuals whose primary source of financial support is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
public support or family/friends/ other support earned less of their own
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income, and people with cerebral palsy or epilepsy earned more, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
people with multiple-disabilities earned less than people with IDD.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Moreover, the results indicate that the quantile regression estimates of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
demographics, disability types, significant disability status, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
primary sources of financial support show different patterns of changes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and consistent upward or downward trends across quantiles of weekly wage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
distribution in comparison with the OLS estimates. This study provides
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
additional insight into the importance of understanding earnings and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
variability that may be able to be addressed by targeted approaches by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
rehabilitation professionals and policymakers.'
