A Test between Unemployment Theories Using Matching Data. a Test between Unemployment Theories Using Matching Data
This paper tests whether aggregate matching is consistent with unemployment being mainly due to search frictions or due to job queues. Using U.K. data and correcting for temporal aggregation bias, estimates of the randommatching function are consistent with previous work in this field, but random matching is formally rejected by the data. The data instead support ‘stock-flow’ matching. Estimate...
متن کاملMultivariate STAR Unemployment Rate Forecasts
In this paper we use smooth transition vector error-correction models (STVECMs) in a simulated out-of-sample forecasting experiment for the unemployment rates of the four non-Euro G-7 countries, the U.S., U.K., Canada, and Japan. In the forecasting analysis, pooled forecasts constructed by taking the median value across the point forecasts generated by the linear VECM and the STVECMs generally ...
متن کاملMeasuring Hysteresis in Unemployment Rates with Long Memory Models
We address the question of unemployment hysteresis within the context of ARFIMA models. Our results suggest that in the post-1973 era, hysteresis is considerably less of a stylized fact for the unemployment rates of key OECD economies.

متن کاملThe Long Memory Property of the Us Unemployment Rate
In the last years, the time series properties of the U.S. unemployment rate have become the subject of intensive debate. Despite extensive empirical research many contradictory results have been reported. In order to resolve the question about the degree of integration, I estimate a highly general ARFIMA(p,d,q) model. The empirical evidence suggests that aggregate U.S. unemployment is fractiona...
متن کاملPredicting memory decline following epilepsy surgery: a multivariate approach.
BACKGROUND While some patients experience a decline in memory function following an anterior temporal lobe resection, there is considerable individual variation in the extent, nature, and direction of postoperative memory change. Patients with surgically remediable temporal lobe epilepsy differ in etiology, the extent and type of underlying pathology, and on demographic and epilepsy-related var...
