This is modeled by application of the concept ofthehazard rate which denotes the conditional exit rate fromunemployment over time given elapsed unemploymentduration.Contrasting more traditional models a semi-parametricapproachis chosen which reduces the danger ofmis-specification of the stochastic duration process. Thisprocedure also is particularly suitable for theanalysis ofgrouped observations on unemployment duration typicallygenerated by longitudinal data sets as theGerman"Socio-Economic Panel" which is utilized for this study.Besides deriving a set of empirical results on unemploymentduration in West Germanymethodological issues of durationanalysis are considered with particular att | | Pindex | Book 1993 |
