Empirical analyses using cross-sectional and panel data found significantly higher levels of job satisfaction for self-employed than for employees. We argue that those estimates in previous studies might be biased by neglecting anticipation and adaptation effects. For testing we specify several...

Though this is certainly a progress, however, two important aspects are missing: time as an important dimension and the interdependence of the...
