Abstract

Estimated values for statistical life exist from 68 reasonably credible studies spread across 13 countries. The income-elasticity of values across countries ranges from 0.85 to 1.00 in models at different levels of aggregation. The values are typically about 120 times the GDP per capita. Regression-based value estimates for most developed countries are presented.
