Title: A non parametric analysis of distributions of household income and attributes
Abstract: We study changes of the distribution of income, age, occupation, household size via their marginal and conditional densities. The data consists of cross sectional samples from the population of British households drawn over the years of 1968 - 1995. Estimation is carried out nonparametrically and no assumptions on the form of the underlying densities is made.
Keywords: kernel density estimation, cross sectional data, income distributions
