The explosive growth in the disability benefit rolls between 1989 and 1993, coupled with the recognition that many people with disabilities work and that those who do are better off than those who depend on transfers, has heightened interest in the factors that influence an individual's work and economic well-being following the onset of a disability. Despite this heightened interest, to date only a small body of research has focused on this topic. This proposal will describe the various paths that individuals with disabilities take following the onset of a health condition and investigate the factors that influence these decisions. These goals will be accomplished by applying a broad definition of disability unrelated to post-onset behaviors such as reduced work or benefit receipt; by using this definition to describe the entire distribution of outcomes for people with disabilities, not just the experiences of the average member of the population; by expanding the analysis to multi-period data to capture the critical transition years before and after the onset of a disability; by comparing the outcomes for individuals with disabilities in the United States with outcomes for their counterparts in Germany; by modeling the decision to apply for the single most important United States disability transfer program-Social Security Disability Insurance (DI); and by simulating the consequences of changes in disability policy using the results of these structural models.

1989年至1989年之间残疾益处的爆炸性增长 1993年，加上许多残疾人工作的认识 那些做的人比那些依赖转移的人更好， 对影响个人工作的因素增加了兴趣 以及残疾发作后的经济福祉。尽管如此 提高了兴趣，迄今为止，只有一小部分研究重点是 这个话题。该建议将描述个人的各种道路 残疾人在健康状况开始后进行 研究影响这些决定的因素。这些目标将 可以通过应用无关的残疾的广泛定义来实现 发言后行为，例如减少工作或收益收据；通过使用 这个定义描述了人们的结果的全部分布 残疾，不仅是普通成员的经历 人口;通过将分析扩展到多周期数据以捕获 残疾发作前后的关键过渡几年；经过 比较曼联残疾人的结果 在德国的同行有结果的国家；通过建模 决定申请最重要的美国残疾人 转移计划社会安全残疾保险（DI）；和 使用该模拟残疾策略变化的后果 这些结构模型的结果。
