An empirical assessment of the U.S. Phillips curve over time
Vlekke, Marente; Koopman, Siem Jan; Mellens, Martin C. - 2021
We assess the stability of the unemployment gap parameter using linear dynamic Phillips curve models for the United States. In this study, we allow the unemployment gap parameter to be time-varying such that we can monitor the importance of the Phillips curve over time. We consider different...

Time-varying degree of wage indexation and the New Keynesian Wage Phillips Curve
Attey, Jonathan A. - 2016
Cost-of-Living-Adjustment (COLA) coverage figures suggest a time variation in the degree of wage indexation. In spite of this observation, most current literature conveniently assume a constant degree of indexation as this variable is not directly observable. This study intends to empirically...

Multiple causation and the measurement of unemployment
Rodenburg, Peter - 2004
The establishment of appropriate policy measures for fighting unemployment has always been difficult since causes of unemployment are hard to identify. This paper analyses an approach used mainly in the 1960s and 1970s in economics, in which classification is used as a way to deal with such a...

Derived measurement in macroeconomics : two approaches for measuring the NAIRU considered
Rodenburg, Peter - 2007
This paper investigates two different procedures for the measurement of the NAIRU; one based on structural modeling … (the NAIRU) and numbers.The paper argues that shifts of the Phillips-curve are not a problem for the structural approach to … measurement of the NAIRU, as the NAIRU itself is a time-varying concept. It is however, the impossibility to identify the exact …

What goes up sometimes stays up : shocks and institutions as determinants of unemployment persistence
Amisano, Gianni; Serati, Massimiliano - 2002
We analyse the determinants of unemployment persistence in four OECDcountries byestimating a structural Bayesian VAR with an informative priorbased on an insiders/outsiders model. We explicitly insert unemployment ben-efits and labour taxes so that our identification is not affected by the Faust...

Regional price adjustment in a monetary union
Berk, Jan Marc; Swank, Job - 2002
Using a New-Keynesian framework, we investigate how far the inflationary processes in member states of EMU cause regional price levels to converge. We fail to produce hard evidence of the present existence of such an adjustment mechanism, notwithstanding that inflation in some countries tends to...
