A standard endogenous separation model developed by Mortensen and Pissarides [1994] has a drawback in replicating the negative correlation between unemployment and vacancies. To address this, I extend the model by incorporating wage rigidity and modifying the assumption about idiosyncratic...

This paper shows that the Mortensen-Pissarides (MP) model requires endogenous separation to explain the volatility of unemployment. I estimate a version of the MP model with wage rigidity and permanent shocks to match productivity. The model generates sufficient volatility in unemployment,...

This paper studies the effects of endogenous participation on unemployment fluctuations. It shows that the wage channel is the key to understanding them. Endogenous participation makes the expected outside options of workers countercyclical. Under Nash bargaining, this induces a countercyclical...

Real wage rigidity is known to create a substantial trade-off between inflation and employment stabilization for monetary policy in New Keynesian models with search frictions on the labor market. This paper shows that, quantitatively, this finding hinges very much on the assumption of constant...
