Panel tests for unit roots in hours worked

Kappler, Marcus (contributor) - 2006

Hours worked is a time series of interest in many empirical investigations of the macroeconomy. Estimates of macro elasticities of labour supply, for example, build on this variable. Other empirical applications investigate the response of hours worked to a shock to technology on the basis of...

Clustering life trajectories : a new divisive hierarchical clustering algorithm for discrete-valued discrete time series

Dlugosz, Stephan - 2011

A new algorithm for clustering life course trajectories is presented and tested with large register data. Life courses are represented as sequences on a monthly timescale for the working-life with an age span from 16–65. A meaningful clustering result for this kind of data provides interesting...

Imposing and testing curvature conditions on a Box-Cox function

Koebel, Bertrand M.; Falk, Martin; Laisney, François - 2000

We present a new method for imposing and testing concavity of a cost function using asymptotic least squares, which can easily be implemented even for cost functions which are nonlinear in parameters. We provide an illustration on the basis of a (generalized) Box-Cox cost function with six...

Application of a simple nonparametric conditional quantile function estimator in unemployment duration analysis

Wichert, Laura (contributor); Wilke, Ralf A. (contributor) - 2005

The paper analyses the potential impact of stock market developments on lending behaviour from different perspectives. First we scrutinize the impact of stock market movements on the banks’ and on the borrowers’ balance sheets. Subsequently we estimate aggregate credit supply and demand...

Application of a simple nonparametric conditional quantile function estimator in unemployment duration analysis

Wichert, Laura (contributor); Wilke, Ralf A. (contributor) - 2007

In many econometric applications it is unclear from the very beginning whether a parametric functional of a continuous regressor should be specified as a linear, as a higher order polynomial or as a piecewise linear. Nonparametric estimators can provide relevant information as they are a...

The returns to continuous training in Germany : new evidence from propensity score matching estimators

Muehler, Grit (contributor); Beckmann, Michael (contributor) - 2007

The present paper examines the wage effects of continuous training programs using individual-level data from the German Socio Economic Panel (GSOEP). In order to account for selectivity in training participation we estimate average treatment effects (ATE and ATT) of general and firm-specific...

Dynamics of overqualification : evidence from the early career of graduates

Erdsiek, Daniel - 2017

This study analyses the persistence and true state dependence of overqualification, i.e. a mismatch between workers … persistence can be attributed to a true state dependence effect. Unobserved factors are found to be the main driver of the high … persistence of overqualification. In particular, selection into initial overqualification at the start of the career is of high …
