DRV, SOEP, SAVE: German Disability Insurance Reform Study Replication Files

Replication files for a forthcoming study in the Review of Economics and Statistics, authored by Nicolas Robert Ziebarth. The study uses three German public datasets (DRV, SOEP, SAVE) to analyze fundamental reforms to the Disability Insurance system.

• Study the impact of policy changes on labor markets using the referenced German datasets
• Benchmark new models against the published results from the DRV, SOEP, and SAVE data

Strengths

• Associated with a forthcoming publication in the Review of Economics and Statistics, indicating peer-reviewed scrutiny
• Provides replication files for a study using three distinct public datasets, facilitating verification

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
