industry specific capital and the wage profile evidence from the national longitudinal survey of youth and the Panel Study of income dynamics
Journal of Labor Economics, 2000Co-Authors: Daniel ParentAbstract:Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (1979-96) and the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (1981-91), I seek to determine whether there is any net positive return to tenure with the current employer once we control for industry-specific capital. Including total experience in the industry as an additional explanatory variable, I show that the return to seniority is markedly reduced using GLS while it virtually disappears using IV-GLS, at both the one-digit and three-digit levels. Therefore, it seems that what matters most for the wage profile in terms of human capital is industry-specificity, not firm-specificity. Copyright 2000 by University of Chicago Press.

coping with long term unemployment economic security labour market integration and well being results from a danish Panel Study 1994 1999
International Journal of Social Welfare, 2002Co-Authors: Jorgen Goul AndersenAbstract:On the basis of a Danish Panel Study of the long–term unemployed 1994–1999, the article challenges core premises underlying labour market reforms, assigning too high a priority to work and work incentives, and too little priority to social protection. Economic hardship has become widespread among long–term unemployed even in Denmark, and this is a more serious threat against well–being than unemployment as such. Generous social security, denounced as ‘passive support’, enables the unemployed to cope with their situation, and there are no signs of any ‘dependency culture’. Incentives in terms of economic hardship may stimulate active job seeking but the Panel Study reveals that it has no positive effect on subsequent labour market integration.

The German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP): Scope, Evolution and Enhancements
2007Co-Authors: Gert G. Wagner, Joachim R. Frick, Jürgen SchuppAbstract:After the introduction in Section 2, we very briefly sketch out current theoretical and empirical developments in the social sciences. In our view, they all point in the same direction: toward the acute and increasing need for multidisciplinary longitudinal data covering a wide range of living conditions and based on a multitude of variables from the social sciences for both theoretical investigation and the evaluation of policy measures. Cohort and Panel studies are therefore called upon to become truly interdisciplinary tools. In Section 3, we describe the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP), in which we discuss recent improvements of that Study which approach this ideal and point out existing shortcomings. Section 4 concludes with a discussion of potential future issues and developments for SOEP and other household Panel studies.

trends in men s earnings volatility what does the Panel Study of income dynamics show
Journal of Public Economics, 2011Co-Authors: Donggyun Shin, Gary SolonAbstract:Abstract Many recent studies have investigated trends in U.S. men's earnings volatility, but the studies based on the Panel Study of Income Dynamics appear to conflict with each other and with studies based on other data. We critique some of the existing methods of measuring earnings volatility, and we advocate for transparent methods that focus on simple measures of dispersion in year-to-year earnings changes. Applying such measures in the PSID, we find that, apart from the well-known counter-cyclicality of earnings volatility, men's earnings volatility increased during the 1970s, but did not show a clear trend afterwards until a new upward trend appeared after 1998.

trends in men s earnings volatility what does the Panel Study of income dynamics show
National Bureau of Economic Research, 2008Co-Authors: Donggyun Shin, Gary SolonAbstract:Using Panel Study of Income Dynamics data for 1969 through 2004, we examine movements in men's earnings volatility. Like many previous studies, we find that earnings volatility is substantially countercyclical. As for secular trends, we find that men's earnings volatility increased during the 1970s, but did not show a clear trend afterwards until a new upward trend appeared in the last few years. These patterns are broadly consistent with the findings of recent studies based on other data sets.
