Abstract :	[en] We present a generalization of Daniel Nagin’s finite mixture model that allows non parallel trajectories for different values of covariates. We investigate some mathematical properties of this model and illustrate its use by giving typical salary curves for the employees in the private sector in Luxembourg between 1981 and 2006, as a function of their gender, as well as of Luxembourg’s gross domestic product (GDP).
