Job matching and the wage distribution

[PDF] from cenet.org.cn
Full text - MIT Libraries
G Moscarini - Econometrica, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
This paper brings together the microeconomic-labor and the macroeconomic-equilibrium
views of matching in labor markets. We nest a job matching model à la Jovanovic (1984) into
a Mortensen and Pissarides (1994)-type equilibrium search environment. The resulting ...

Limited information capacity as a source of inertia

Full text - MIT Libraries
G Moscarini - Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 2004 - Elsevier
We derive optimal time-dependent adjustment rules from Shannon's (1948) Information
Theory. In a continuous-time LQ prediction problem with a costly rate of information
acquisition-processing, the optimal prediction evolves smoothly, but jumps at an optimally ...

G Moscarini… - Econometrica, 2001 - Wiley Online Library
Consider Wald's classical (1947) Bayesian formulation of sequential analysis. A given
decision maker () is uncertain about a payoff relevant state of the world, and before deciding,
can buy multiple iid informative signals at constant marginal cost. The should then ...

Morale hazard

[PDF] from 128.36.236.35
Full text - MIT Libraries
H Fang, G Moscarini - Journal of Monetary Economics, 2005 - Elsevier
We interpret workers' confidence in their own skills as their morale, and investigate the
implication of worker overconfidence on the firm's optimal wage-setting policies. In our
model, wage contracts both provide incentives and affect worker morale, by revealing ...

G Moscarini - The Review of Economic Studies, 2001 - restud.oxfordjournals.org
Abstract Workers face a trade-off between macroeconomic and individual incentives to work

We propose a new methodology to measure worker mobility across occupations and jobs in
the US, building on the limited longitudinal dimension of monthly CPS data. For the period
1979–2006, we find that about 3.5% of male workers employed in two consecutive months ...

B Brugemann, G Moscarini - Review of Economic Dynamics, 2010 - Elsevier
Two thirds of US unemployment volatility is due to fluctuations in workers' job-finding rate. In
search and matching models, aggregate productivity shocks generate such fluctuations: via
inputs in the matching technology, they affect the rate at which workers and firms come ...
