Empirical Inference with Equilibrium Search Models of the Labour Market
综述了利用工资和工作时长微观数据对均衡搜索模型进行结构估计的文献，讨论了该方法在政策分析和理解劳动力市场方面的优势，并批判性评估了其应用于企业数据的可行性。
This paper examines the use of equilibrium search models in the empirical analysis of labour markets. We survey the literature on structural estimation of these models with micro data on wages and durations, and we discuss the advantages of this approach for policy analysis and for obtaining a better understanding of the labour market. During the past ten years, substantial progress has been made in terms of the explanatory power of these models. We finish with a critical examination of the extent to which the approach can be fruitfully applied to (matched worker‐) firm data.
