While past studies have exemplified the causal link to be small, albeit statistically significant, this paper aims to estimate the causal effect to investigate whether the effect of income after controlling for the endogeneity remains small in the long run. By correcting for the bias, and knowing the bias direction, one can also infer about the underlying backward effect. Published 2016-11-28T04:15:38Z 2016-11-28T04:15:38Z 2016-04 Article Fakir, A. M.
