Frictional Wage Dispersion in Search Models: A Quantitative Assessment (2011, unknown): “Christensen et al. (2005) estimate that γ is around one, which in the baseline calibration implies Mm = 1.088.”
Equilibrium Policy Experiments and the Evaluation of Social Programs (2003, unknown): “A 894 1,010 1,657 813 1,128 1,283 U(1) 894 1,010 1,657 992 1,128 1,283 U(2) 1,116 1,121 1,657 1,309 1,128 1,283 U(3) 1,294 1,217 1,657 1,351 1,128 1,283 U(4) 1,444 1,302 1,657 1,389 1,128 1,283 U(5) 1,573 1,376 1,657 1,424 1,154 1,283 U(6) 1,684 1,968 1,657 1,456 1,179 1,283 U(7) 1,780 1,968 1,657 1”
Nonlinear Policy Rules and the Identification and Estimation of Causal Effects in a Generalized Regression Kink Design (2012, methodology): “The setup is identical to the model used by Christensen et al. (2005), except that we cast the problem in discrete time (with a discount rate β ) and assume a wage-dependent UI benefit.”
An Empirical Model of Wage Dispersion with Sorting (2009, methodology): “The analysis is based on an off-the-shelf model of on-the-job search with endogenous search intensity as in Christensen, Lentz, Mortensen, Neumann, and Werwatz (2005) combined with wage determination as in Cahuc, Postel-Vinay, and Robin (2006). The model is analyzed in detail in Lentz (2007).”
Job Search Behavior Among the Employed and Non-Employed (2017, unknown): “Our model builds on earlier models of on-the-job search with endogenous search effort such as Christensen et al. (2005) and Hornstein et al. (2011) and the wage bargaining protocol in Cahuc et al. (2006).”
The Pervasive Absence of Compensating Differentials (2009, methodology): “The wage/amenity offer equations (3)-(4) and the rule of voluntary mobility (5) form the core of the model.”
To Match or Not To Match? Optimal Wage Policy with Endogenous Worker Search Intensity ∗ (2004, background): “Insights in this matter are provided in a series of papers by Mortensen and coauthors (see, e.g., the two references cited earlier and also Christensen et al., 2001) where the job search effort put forth by workers—and in particular by employed workers—is made endogenous.”
Wage bargaining with on-the-job search: Theory and evidence (2006, background): “Equation (9) is a particularly important empirical relationship as it will allow us to back out the sampling distribution F from its empirical counterpart L.”
