Excess Labor Demand Indicators
1987The key to estimation of the above disequilibrium labor market model is the indicator equation, $$\text{L}_{\text{t}}^{\text{d}}-\text{L}_{\text{t}}^{\text{s}}={{\text{ }\!\!\delta\!\!\text{ }}_{0}}\text{(}{{\text{z}}_{\text{t}}}\text{-z}{}_{\text{t}}^{\text{E}}\text{)}$$ (24) which relates the unobservable excess demand for labor to an ...

The main economic rationale for sluggish wage adjustment and incomplete clearing of the labor market is based on the long-term ...
