RIWI data on the topic of income inequality were featured as a topic of the World Bank’s Development Impact blog series on the job market, published December 4th, 2018 by Christopher Hoy of the Australian National University.

The randomness of the respondent and allocation to a treatment group were crucial for this study, as Hoy discusses in the article.
