Time Variation in the Dynamics of Worker Flows: Evidence from the US and Canada

Campolieti, Michele; Gefang, Deborah; Koop, Gary - Economics Department, University of Strathclyde - 2011

VAR methods have been used to model the inter-relationships between inflows and outflows into unemployment and vacancies using tools such as impulse response analysis. In order to investigate whether such impulse responses change over the course of the business cycle or over time, this paper...

Equilibrium Directed Search with Multiple Applications

Albrecht, James; Gautier, Pieter; Vroman, Susan - 2003

We analyse a model of equilibrium directed search in a large labour market. Each worker, observing the wages posted at all vacancies, makes a fixed, finite number of applications, a. We allow for the possibility of ex post competition should more than one vacancy want to hire the same worker....

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 …

Equilibrium Directed Search with Multiple Applications

Albrecht, James; Gautier, Pieter A.; Vroman, Susan - 2003

We analyze a model of directed search in which unemployed job seekers observe all posted wages. We allow for the possibility of multiple applications by workers and ex post competition among vacancies. For any number of applications, there is a unique symmetric equilibrium in which vacancies...

Optimal Redistributive Taxation in a Search Equilibrium Model

Hungerbühler, Mathias; Lehmann, Etienne; Parmentier, Alexis - 2005

This paper characterizes optimal non-linear income taxation in an economy with a continuum of unobservable productivity levels and endogenous involuntary unemployment due to frictions in the labor markets. Redistributive taxation distorts labor demand and wages. Compared to their efficient...
