| Tiivistelmä: | This paper analyzes how the levels of unemployment and vacancies affect the rate at which unemployed workers find employment - the worker-firm "matching function". In particular, the authors test the robustness of previous empirical work by checking whether the same estimated function could be obtained using cross-section data rather than aggregate time series data. The authors find strong evidence of constant returns to scales which is strikingly similar to previous work. |
