Are self-employed really happier than employees? : an approach modelling adaptation and anticipation effects to self-employment and general job changes
Hanglberger, Dominik; Merz, Joachim - 2011
Empirical analyses using cross-sectional and panel data found significantly higher levels of job satisfaction for self-employed than for employees. We argue that those estimates in previous studies might be biased by neglecting anticipation and adaptation effects. For testing we specify several...

Cribb, Jonathan; Xu, Xiaowei - 2020
