The Rise in Danish Unemployment: Reallocation or Mismatch?*
检验了丹麦失业率上升的两种竞争理论：重新配置（给定就业水平下离职增加）和错配（给定失业和职位空缺下雇佣减少），通过平滑转换函数建模并接受错配假说。
Abstract The two main competing theories for the outward shift in the uv‐curve are investigated: increased separations from employment at a given employment level (reallocation) and decreased levels of hires, given unemployment and vacancies (mismatch). Shifts in the unemployment–vacancy (uv)‐curve and the hiring function are modelled by smooth transition functions, and the hypothesis of analogous shifts in the two curves is tested and accepted. This is interpreted as evidence in favour of the mismatch hypotheses.
