Gender and education gaps in employment : new evidence for the EU
Gökten, Meryem; Heimberger, Philipp; Arsenev, Aleksandr; … - 2024

A Test between Unemployment Theories Using Matching Data
Coles, Melvyn G.; Petrongolo, Barbara - 2003
This paper tests whether aggregate matching is consistent with unemployment being mainly due to search frictions or due … to job queues. Using U.K. data and correcting for temporal aggregation bias, estimates of the random matching function … are consistent with previous work in this field, but random matching is formally rejected by the data. The data instead …

Job Duration and Match Quality Over the Cycle
Mustre-del-Rio, Jose - 2016
This paper examines how job quality varies over the cycle. Empirical evidence from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY) suggests match quality is procyclical. This interpretation is corroborated in a calibrated model with on-the-job search. In the model, more high quality matches are...
