The Impact Of Economic And Demographic Factors On Income Inequality: A Comparative Study Of Southeast Asian And Latin American Countries, Muhammad Syukron Mamun

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

Despite rapid economic growth, Southeast Asia and Latin America continue to have significant income inequality. This study applies fixed-effects regression estimation with the dynamic panel model with lagged independent variables and the fixed-effects analysis with endogenous covariates to examine the impact of economic and demographic factors on income inequality in 6 Southeast Asian and 15 Latin American countries from 1994 to 2017. Empirical results indicate that emissions, trade openness, old-age dependency ratio, human capital, and female population reduce income inequality, whereas industrialization, unemployment, young-age dependency ratio, and urban population increase income inequality in Southeast Asian countries. This study also finds …

Work Values Of Employees Across Multigenerational Workforce In Hospitality Industry In Thailand, Jatupathra Krancharoen

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

A mixture of age diversity in workplace had been witnessed, yet an understanding of the association between multigenerational workforce and their work values was little known. As a result, many firms reported that the domestic conflicts were most likely to be due to the lack of generational understandability and appropriate HR policy in response to such a context. This study therefore aimed to: (1) examine the differences in work values across the generations of employees; (2) explore whether the demographic factors and parenthood status were associated with the work values of employees; (3) provide the policy suggestions/discussions on human resource …

Economic factors have long been established as one of the factors contributing to elderly life satisfaction. As the aging population is becoming an ever-increasing and more relevant phenomenon, policymakers' goals are shifting to accommodate the sociopolitical changes that will come with the demographic developments. This independent study examines a sample of n=4716 Thai elderly. The statistical techniques used in this study are Linear Regression and …

The Effect Of Population Structure On Economic Development: Thailand's Provincial Panel Data, Satayu Pattarakijkusol

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

This research investigates the effects of demographic change, the change of labor supply, and human capital on Thailand’s economic development. This will help shed light on the relationship between population (quantitatively and qualitatively) and economic development. The demographic dividends, the neoclassical growth Solow-Swan model, and human capital are adopted as the conceptual framework for this research. The secondary panel data at the provincial level from government officials will be used for statistical analysis. Fixed effect or random effect with lagged dependent variable is introduced into the estimated model. The finding suggests that the labor productivity, employment level, share of the …
