| Abstract | In this paper we evaluate the wage premium obtained by Spanish workers who use any foreign language in their job. To do so we have defined a variable that measures the relative lack among Spanish population of linguistic knowledge used by Spanish workers. The problem of the possible endogeneity of foreign languages knowledge has been treated explicitly by an iterative method of instrumental variables quantile regression that is robust to the presence of weak instruments. This estimation method allows us to analyze the effect of linguistic skills at different parts of the wage distribution using data from the European Union Household Panel (ECHP). |
