在大多数双边搜索模型中，匹配函数中的收益不变假设对于确保失业率沿着稳态增长路径的唯一性至关重要。本文通过估计失业进入者样本的个体再就业概率，探讨了这一假设的实证可行性。我应用风险模型的调查数据完成和未完成的失业持续时间。匹配收益不变的假设没有被拒绝，因为有证据表明，找工作的风险只取决于当地劳动力市场的紧张程度，而与其规模无关。
The assumption of constant returns in the matching function, embodied in most bilateral search models, is crucial to ensure the uniqueness of the unemployment rate along a steady‐state growth path. This article explores the empirical viability of this assumption by estimating individual reemployment probabilities on a sample of unemployment entrants. I apply hazard models to survey data on both completed and uncompleted unemployment durations. The hypothesis of constant returns to matching is not rejected, on the basis of the evidence that the job‐finding hazard depends only on local labor market tightness and is independent of its size.
