Does Unemployment Cause Future Unemployment? Definitions, Questions and Answers from a Continuous Time Model of Heterogeneity and State Dependence Economica 47,187 (August 1980): 247-283. Also: http://www.jstor.org/stable/2553150 Cohort(s): Young Men Publisher: Blackwell Publishing, Inc. => Wiley Online Keyword(s): Heterogeneity; Job Search; Markov chain / Markov model; Research Methodology; Statistical Analysis; Unemployment; Work History This paper presents statistical methods for testing for the presence of true state dependence. Methods used are based on extensions of existing models for continuous-time discrete-state Markov processes. For this paper a new model with general forms of state dependence is developed. Four main types of structural dependence are examined: Markov dependence, occurrence dependence, duration dependence, and lagged duration dependence. |
