• Consumer Spending during Unemployment: Positive and Normative Implications (2019, neutral): “Because these states show balance on ex ante observables, an explicit procedure to ensure balance on these observables such as Currie and Gruber (1996) would yield similar conclusions.”
• Does Migration Make You Happy? A Longitudinal Study of Internal Migration and Subjective Well-Being (2011, methodology): “In economic literature analogous models are used to evaluate earnings losses of displaced workers (Couch, 2001; Couch et al, 2011; Couch and Placzek, 2010; Jacobson and LaLonde, 1993; White, 2010).”
• Formative Experiences and Portfolio Choice: Evidence from the Finnish Great Depression (2017, neutral): “16 Studies that run regressions in which the main independent variable of interest is historically determined and the controls are measured at the same time as the dependent variable include Cronqvist et al. (2016), Grinblatt, Keloharju, and Linnainmaa (2011), and Malmendier and Nagel (2011).”
• Housing and Employment Insecurity among the Working Poor (2016, background): “More disconcerting is growing evidence that earnings losses of laid off workers are stubbornly resilient, persisting for as long as 20 years post displacement (Couch and Placzek 2010; Gangl 2006).”
• Imperfect Competition, Compensating Differentials and Rent Sharing in the U.S. Labor Market (2019, neutral): “The majority of these studies focus on the US and find that long-run earnings losses from a job displacement are around 10-20 percent (see the survey by Couch and Placzek 2010).15 Thus, a job displacement has about the same effect on earnings as moving to a firm that is one standard deviation lower ”
