In the citing paper
“In contrast to previous approaches, this identification strategy does not rely on the assumption that equivalence scales are independent of the welfare level. Furthermore, it does not rely on any specific Engel curve shape.”

“Compared with the estimates reported by Stengos et al. (2006) for Canada, our estimates are relatively low and are closer to the results of Wilke (2006) using the EVS of 1998.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
