The empirical analysis of inequality of opportunity centers on the correlation between social circumstances beyond individual control and well-being outcomes, both unobserved concepts. However, hardly ever these analyses adjust for the error of the measurement in each construct. The aim of this research is to correct for attenuation the quantification of the level of inequality of opportunity in Mexico based on reliability theory.

Highly educated population in Mexico face decreasing returns to education at least since 2006. While some of the hypotheses behind this phenomenon have started to point towards the demand side of the labor market, a detail analysis across different occupational insertions, age groups, and geographic areas has been lacking. This research aims to fill this gap.

The empirical analysis of the economic consequences of teenage pregnancy is quite challenging, mainly due to the lack of proper longitudinal data. In this research we exploit an Accelerated Longitudinal Design of the Mexican Family Life Survey (MxFLS) to gain further knowledge into this social phenomenon in Mexico.
