Cross-sectional evidence for the job-matching model

Author

  • Julie Hotchkiss

Abstract

Using the PSID and 2SLS estimation, this paper provides cross-sectional empirical evidence for the job-matching model. The empirical model which specifies wages as a function of expected tenure (rather than merely current tenure) more accurately describes the observed data.
