| Abstract: | A dynamic job search model which allows the author to distinguish various effects, such as "offer" probability effects and leisure effects, on an individual's behaviour is presented and estimated. The authors find that: (1) there is disutility from being unemployed, especially after the first three months of unemployment; (2) income receipts other than unemployment benefits and earnings have only a very small effect on the behaviour; (3) the conditional probability of leaving unemployment shows no sign of decreasing with duration. |
