An alternative approach to labor supply modeling : emphasizing job-type as choice variable
(Discussion Papers;No. 550, Working paper, 2008)Abstract: Traditional labor supply analysis is based on the assumption that workers only have preferences over consumption and hours of work, and are able to choose consumption and hours freely within the budget constraint. ... -
Analysis of the discouraged worker phenomenon : evidence from micro data
(Discussion Papers;No. 453, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: In this paper we analyze labor force participation with particular reference to the discouraged worker effect. The theoretical point of departure is a simple model where the worker evaluates the expected utility ... -
Designing optimal taxes with a microeconometric model of household labour supply
(Discussion Papers;No. 475, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present an exercise where we identify optimal income tax rules under the constraint of fixed tax revenue. To this end, we estimate a microeconomic model with 78 parameters that ... -
A Framework for analyzing rank ordered panel data with application to automobile demand
(Discussion Papers;No. 480, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: In this paper we develop a framework for analyzing panel data with observations on rank ordered alternatives that allows for correlated random taste shifters across time and across alternatives. As a special ... -
How large is the class of generalized extreme value random utility models?
(Discussion Paper;No. 80, Working paper, 1993-01)The Generalized Extreme Value Model (GEV) was developed by McFadden (cf. McFadden, 1981) with the purpose of extending the Luce Model to account for interdependent utilities. While the Luce model satisfies the IIA property ... -
Labor force participation and the discouraged worker effect
(Discussion Papers;642, Working paper, 2010)This paper analyzes labor force participation with particular reference to the discouraged worker effect. Discouraged workers are those who do not search for work because they view their chances of finding a suitable job ... -
Labor supply as a choice among latent job opportunities : a practical empirical approach
(Discussion Papers;No. 481, Working paper, 2006)Abstract: In this paper, we discuss aspects of a particular framework for modeling labor supply and the application of this approach in practical policy simulation experiments. This modeling framework differs from the ...
