Since both procedures are rather descriptive, I'd say it is important
to apply the weights.

By the way, Clive:

   Juhn, Chinhui, Kevin M. Murphy, Brooks Pierce (1993). Wage
       Inequality and the Rise in Returns to Skill. Journal of
       Political Economy 101(3): 410-442.

   DiNardo, J., N.M. Fortin, and T.Lemieux (1996) "Labour Market
       Insitutions and the Distribution of Wages, 1973-1992: A
       Semiparametric Approach," Econometrica, 64(5): 1001-1044.

Thank you Ben.

But should one really use the survey weights
with the estimation? I have not seen any literature
that mentioned anything regarding the weights in
their Juhn-Murphy-Pierce (1993) estimation.

Also, what about DFL?
DiNardo-Fortin-Lemieux (1996)
My gutts feeling says that I should be using
the survey weights (include into the estimation
when they do the reweighing method).
However, I also don't see any literature
says that they use weights in their
DiNardo-Fortin-Lemieux (1996) estimation.

I'm quite confuse. Can you or anyone help me with this?

Sincerely,
Vora N
