Labor market access and labor market outcomes for urban youth
研究了就业可及性对青年劳动力市场结果的重要性,提出了一个强调社会网络信息联系的更广泛定义,并基于微观数据发现黑人青年的就业概率与这些可及性指标显著相关。
This paper examines the importance of job access in explaining labor market outcomes for youth. The work sets forth a broader definition of ‘access’ which emphasizes the information links provided by social networks. Empirical analysis, based upon micro data from the public use sample and upon metropolitan wide aggregates, indicates that employment probabilities for black youth are significantly related to these measures of labor market access.
