Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important measures of the state of the labour market is the unemployment rate. However, the standard definition of unemployment ignores an important group of people who are not employed but who want to work - the marginally attached workforce. The marginally attached are defined as those who are not employed, want to work but are not actively seeking work and therefore not classified as unemployed. The paper uses longitudinal data from the Survey of Employment and Unemployment Patterns (SEUP) to test whether the marginally attached are behaviourally distinct from the unemployed or those who are not attached to the labour force. We find that the labour force transitions of the marginally attached, on the whole, are between those of the unemployed and the unattached. Another finding is that the length of time over which the labour market dynamics are considered is crucial to our understanding of the labour market dynamics of the marginally attached. An implication of the findings of this paper is that a range of measures of potential labour supply should be considered, and that the measure used should depend on the specific question being asked.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation develops new data and methods for properly measuring U.S. labor market dynamics using large, nationally-representative household surveys. These data are used to assess potential biases arising from time aggregation and from geographic mobility. Time aggregation is estimated using weekly labor force information from the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP). The degree of time aggregation is large: gross flows estimated from monthly data understate the true number of transitions by 20 percent on average. However, time aggregation creates no meaningful cyclical bias in measured gross flows or hazard rates. Separation hazard rates calculated from the SIPP and the Current Population Survey (CPS) are strongly countercyclical and remain so after adjusting for time aggregation. Using a new database that captures all longitudinal information in the CPS individuals who move can be identified. Comparing the behavior of the entire CPS sample with the subset known not to have moved provides a bound to the bias from geographic mobility. The cyclical bias from geographic mobility is small. At business cycle frequencies, the difference between the separation hazard rate calculated from the entire CPS sample and from a subset that are known not to have moved never exceeds 4 percent. There is little effect of mobility on the job finding hazard rate. The weekly SIPP data identify direct employment-to-employment (EE) transitions. Abstracting from labor force participation, EE transitions account for one-half of all separations from employment. Similar estimates using the CPS are twice as large however the CPS overstates EE transitions because of time aggregation. Separations to a new job are strongly procyclical while separations to unemployment are strongly countercyclical. The combination yields a nearly acyclical total separation rate. The weekly job finding rate is strongly procyclical.
Download or read book Longitudinal Analysis of Labor Market Data written by James J. Heckman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longitudinal Analysis of Labor Market Data presents a set of papers by leading scholars on methods for analysing the longitudinal data that is available on numerous topics of interest to social scientists. Because many sources of longitudinal data record labour market phenomena such as unemployment, labour supply, earnings mobility, job turnover and participation in training programmes, all of the papers collected in this volume focus on models of the labour market. The main methodological points, however, are more general and apply to such diverse areas as demography, life science analysis and training evaluation, to name only a few, potential avenues of application. The book contains important methodological contributions to the emerging field of longitudinal analysis and is of interest to a wide range of social scientists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the major changes in the social science research landscape in recent years has been the introduction of computerised panel surveys in Europe and the US which make longitudinal data widely available to graduate students for the first time. Elisabetta Ruspini here provides a concise yet comprehensive introduction to the issues involved in this kind of research. This book: * Defines the concept of longitudinal research * Gives guidance on sources of longitudinal data in Europe and the US and their strengths and weaknesses * Discusses the choices that need to be made in this kind of research - for instance the advantages and disadvantages of certain types of research data and of different types of analysis * Highlights some of the problems involved, e.g. the issue of comparability within longitudinal research

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last twenty years there has been an explosion of economic research on labor force dynamics; the movement of individuals between labor force states. This book focuses on the methods by which behavioral theories of labor force dynamics have been empirically implemented. Most attention is paid to the partial equilibrium two-state transitional model of job search behavior. That model is the foundation for much of our thinking about the nature of unemployment at both the individual and aggregate levels. Although the basic formulation has remained the same, approaches to the empirical implementation of such models has changed dramatically.
