In line with other studies, we find that all … equilibrium model with highly persistent shocks might be adequate to account for the observed behaviour of unemployment …

The presence of discontinuities in the January rounds of Philippine Unemployment Data from 1981-2006 is investigated by … an abrupt change in unemployment rates in the mid-1980s and in 2005-2006. The former may reflect the political and … unemployment adopted in 2005 …

The unemployment rate in Australia is modelled as an assymmetric and non-linear function of aggregate demand …, productivity, real wages and unemployment benefits. Negative changes in aggregate demand cause the unemployment rate to rise … rapidly, while real wage rigidity contributes its to slow adjustment back towards a lower level of unemployment. The model is …

Models of the aggregate unemployment rate have traditionally been estimated from structural models of the labour market … or in a linear single-equation framework. However, theory as well as evidence suggest that the unemployment rate is … asymmetric and should be modelled in a non-linear framework. In this paper the unemployment rate in Australia is modelled as a …
