Expectations of Unemployment Insurance and Unemployment Duration
Journal of Labor Economics, 1998Over the years there have been frequent changes in unemployment insurance (UI) benefits. Such changes could influence spells in progress as well as future spells.

Education and unemployment [PDF]
, 1993 A major benefit of education is the lower risk of unemployment at higher educational levels.
