Theoretical and practical arguments for modeling labor supply as a choice among latent jobs
Dagsvik, John K.; Jia, Zhiyang; Kornstad, Tom; … - 2012
paper we argue that practicality is not the only feature that can be addressed by means of stochastic choice theory. This … theory also offers a powerful framework for developing a more realistic model for labor supply choices, founded on …

Income Taxation in an Empirical Collective Household Labour Supply Model with Discrete Hours
Bloemen, Hans G. - 2010
Most empirical studies on the impact of labour income taxation on the labour supply behaviour of households use a unitary modelling approach. In this paper we empirically analyze income taxation and the choice of working hours by combining the collective approach for household behaviour and the...

Estimates of a Labour Supply Function Using Alternative Measures of Hours of Work
Klevmarken, N. Anders - 2004
Depending on data source, estimates of hours of work give widely different results both as to level and change. In this paper three alternative measures of hours worked are used to estimate a simple labour supply function to investigate if estimated wage rate and income effects are data...

The Predictive Value of Subjective Labour Supply Data: A Dynamic Panel Data Model with Measurement Error
Euwals, Rob - 2001
This paper tests the predictive value of subjective labour supply data for adjustments in working hours over time. The idea is that if subjective labour supply data help to predict next year?s working hours, such data must contain at least some information on individual labour supply...

Exchange rate uncertainty and labour market adjustment under fixed and flexible exchange rates
Chen, Yu-Fu; Funke, Michael - 2002
The standard literature on working time has modelled the decisions of firms in a deterministic framework in which firms can choose between employment and overtime (given mandated standard hours). Contrary to this approach, we follow the real options approach, which allows us to investigate the...

Aggregating labour supply and feedback effects in microsimulation
Creedy, John; Duncan, Alan - 2001
This paper extends behavioural microsimulation modelling so that third round effects of a policy change can be simulated. The first round effects relate to fixed hours of work, while second round effects allow for changes in desired hours of work at unchanged wages. These allow for endogenous...

Discrete Working Time Choice in an Applied General Equilibrium Model
Gürtzgen, Nicole; Feil, Michael; Boeters, Stefan - 2004
We present a model that integrates the discrete working time choice of heterogenous households into a general equilibrium setting where wages are determined by sectoral bargaining between firms and trade unions. The model is calibrated to German micro and macro data. We then use it to analyse...

Alternative Approaches to Discrete Working Time Choice in an AGE Framework
Arntz, Melanie; Boeters, Stefan; Gürtzgen, Nicole - 2005
We compare two options of integrating discrete working time choice of heterogenous households into a general equilibrium model. The first, known from the literature, produces household heterogeneity through a working time preference parameter. We contrast this with a model that directly...
