THE IMPACT OF UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE BENEFITS ON THE PROBABILITY OF MIGRATION OF THE UNEMPLOYED*
研究发现，过去研究因忽略失业补偿金和离职原因，高估了非自愿失业者的迁移概率，低估了自愿失业者的迁移概率，且联邦失业补偿计划可能抑制非自愿失业者的迁出。
"By ignoring individual unemployment compensation benefits and conditions of job termination, past migration research has concluded that personal unemployment doubles the likelihood of interstate labor-force migration. Findings from the present study indicate that aggregating the unemployed, without adjusting for these two factors, overstates the probability of migration for the involuntarily unemployed benefit recipient and understates the likelihood of migration for the voluntarily unemployed benefit recipient. The results suggest that federal discretionary unemployment-compensation programs, which are implemented during recessionary periods, likely serve to retard out-migration of those who are involuntarily unemployed." Data are from a 1982 sample of unemployed U.S. workers.
