A Competing Risks Hazard Model of Schooling and Job Turnover

Audrey Light俄亥俄州立大学SBR-9514749本研究将分析学校教育对工作流动的影响。在受过高等教育的年轻人中，工作流动率是更高还是更低，在经济学专业中几乎没有共识。需要调查的问题之一是，迫使年轻人留在学校的因素是否也迫使他留在雇主那里。另一个需要调查的问题是，年轻人是否去上学而不是寻找“合适的”工作。如果这是真的，以后的工作流动率可能会增加。这些和其他相关的教育/工作流动研究问题的答案可能会影响未来的教育政策。这项研究将使用1979- 1994年年轻人的数据，包括男性和女性、白人、黑人和西班牙裔。它将采用复杂的计量经济学技术，将个人效应与教育效应分离开来。

Audrey Light Ohio State University SBR-9514749 The research will analyze the effect of schooling on job turnover. There is little consensus in the economics profession about whether job turnover is higher or lower among more highly educated young individuals. One of the questions to be investigated is whether whatever compels a young person to stay in school also compels him to stay with his employer. An alternative question to be investigated is whether young people go to school instead of looking for the "right" job. If this is true, job turnover may increase later. The answer to these and other related education/job turnover research questions could affect future education policies. The research will use 1979-94 data on young people, covering both males and females, whites, blacks and Hispanics. It will employ sophisticated econometric techniques to separate individual effects from education effects.
