With or without u? : testing the hypothesis of an inverted u-shaped union membership-age relationship
Schnabel, Claus; Wagner, Joachim - In: Contemporary economics 6 (2012) 4, pp. 28-34
In this note, we apply a new test by Lind and Mehlum (2010), casting doubt on the claim proposed by Blanchflower (2007) that the probability of unionisation follows an inverted U-shaped pattern in age with a maximum in the mid- to late 40s. With this new test for an inverted U-shaped pattern,...
