Cyclical variations in unemployment duration [PDF]

Journal of Population Economics, 2001
In this paper I study how individual unemployment durations vary over the business cycle, using unemployment spells of a sample of Danish workers. A compositional, an outflow, and a residual calendar-time component are identified, and they all contribute to explaining the variations in unemployment duration.

Unemployment duration and the measurement of unemployment

The Journal of Economic Inequality, 2008
We propose a framework in which the welfare bases of various unemployment measures available in the literature can be analyzed and a decomposition of these measures can be made into aggregate unemployment and the concentration of its distribution. A set of axioms for an unemployment measure is then introduced, which relate to the sensitivity of an ...

The Determinants of Individual Unemployment Durations in an Era of High Unemployment

The Economic Journal, 1995
This paper presents the results of an econometric analysis of the conditional probability of leaving unemployment for two male inflow cohorts entering unemployment at very different points in time: 1978 and 1987. The effect of income while unemployed is found to be much weaker for the I987 cohort, an elasticity of -o-i compared with -0-4, and is only ...

A Note on Unhappiness and Unemployment Duration

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2006
Although it is now widely-accepted that unemployment is associated with sharply lower levels of individual well-being, relatively little is known about how this effect depends on unemployment duration.

Unemployment Benefits in a Period of Crisis: The Effect on Unemployment Duration [PDF]

The study uses recent data for unemployment benefit recipients in Estonia – a country where the rise in unemployment during the global financial crisis was the highest in the entire European Union. Both a higher benefit level and
