Most data used to study the durations of unemployment spells come from the Current Population Survey, which is a point …-in-time survey and gives an incomplete picture of the underlying duration distribution. We introduce a new sample of completed … unemployment spells obtained from panel data and apply CPS sampling and reporting techniques to replicate the type of data used by …
