Abstract:
We show the reporting heterogeneity bias into all 7 domains of health using the anchoring vignettes approach with the hierarchical ordered probit model. The paper uses the data of the Russian sample of the first wave of the global survey SAGE provided by the World Health Organization Study. The heterogeneity bias correction has changed the significance level of education level, permanent income, rural/urban living, and marital status.
