The Youth Labor Market In the Eighties: Determinants of Re-employment Probabilities for Young Men and Women Review of Economics and Statistics 71,1 (February 1989): 37-45.

Data from the NLSY is used to develop a model analyzing transition probabilities from nonemployment to employment. The effect on reemployment probabilities of various personal characteristics including race, education, and health status, as well as receipt of unemployment income, local demand conditions, and duration dependence is examined. Significant differences were found between the labor market experiences of whites and nonwhites, and males and females with local demand conditions and human capital investments acting as important determinants of the duration of nonemployment spells. |
