Ankündigungseffekt oder Maßnahmewirkung? : eine Evaluation von Trainingsmaßnahmen zur Überprüfung der Verfügbarkeit

Abstract

"Trainingsmaßnahmen sind ein Instrument der aktiven Arbeitsförderung, mit dem je nach Ausrichtung unterschiedliche Zielsetzungen verfolgt werden. In diesem Beitrag wird eine Variante der Trainingsmaßnahmen, die Maßnahme zur Überprüfung der Verfügbarkeit, evaluiert. Diese Maßnahme zielt in erster Linie darauf ab zu überprüfen, ob Arbeitslose zu einer Arbeitsaufnahme zur Verfügung stehen. Besonderes Augenmerk liegt hier deshalb auf der Fragestellung, wodurch Trainingsmaßnahmen zur Überprüfung der Verfügbarkeit zur Verbesserung von Eingliederungsaussichten beitragen. Unterschieden werden dabei Eingliederungseffekte, die allein aus der Einladung zu einer Maßnahme resultieren, in Abgrenzung zu Effekten, die für die tatsächliche Teilnahme an einer Trainingsmaßnahme geschätzt werden. Zur Untersuchung dieser Fragestellung werden Daten aus einem arbeitsmarktpolitischen Experiment genutzt, die neben Angaben über Maßnahmeteilnahmen auch Informationen zu ausgesprochenen Einladungen liefern." (Autorenreferat, IAB-Doku)
