The analysis focuses on an examination of the impact of government-sponsored training programs aimed at disadvantaged male youths on their labour market transitions. The richness of the data at our disposal allows us to recreate very detailed individual histories over a relatively long period...

We estimate a model of the joint participation and mobility along with the individuals’wage formation in France. Our model makes it possible to distinguish between unobservedperson heterogeneity and state-dependence. We estimate the model using state of the artbayesian methods employing a long...

This survey is devoted to the modelling and the estimation of reduced-form transition models, which have been extensively used and estimated in labor microeconometrics. The first section contains a general presentation of the statistical modelling of such processes using continuous-time...

In Canada, a policy aiming at helping single parents on social assistance become selfreliantwas implemented on an experimental basis. The Self-Sufficiency Entry Effects Demonstrationrandomly selected a sample of 4,134 single parents who had applied for welfare betweenJanuary 1994 and March 1995....

We jointly model fertility and participation decisions of women who live in couple using a dynamic model. In this paper we analyze the labour supply and the fertility decisions of married or cohabiting women in France, Spain, Germany, UK and Denmark. We estimate, for the period going from 1994...

Dans ce travail, nous cherchons à déterminer l'impact des mesures actives d'insertion sur les transitions des jeunes prestataires masculins de l'aide de dernier recours sur le marché du travail. La richesse des données à notre disposition nous permet de recréer de façon très détaillée...

In this paper we analyse the problem of modelling individual transitions in the presence of an incomplete sampling scheme. This problem is particularly cumbersome when a continuous time-scale is used for the modelling and when the model incorporates unobserved heterogeneity. This problem arises,...

We consider a dynamic model for the participation decision to thelabour market of the women who live in couple.We estimate a dynamicprobit model with random effects using the french part of the Europanel,for the period going from 1994 to 2001 and using a simulatedmaximum likehood estimator....
