Assignment Models and Quantitative Mismatches
نویسنده
چکیده
Qualitative mismatches arise when the qualifications or skills of workers, individually or in the aggregate, are different from the qualifications or skills required or specified for their jobs. This review develops the distinction between short run mismatches occurring between workers and jobs and long run aggregate mismatches that arise from shifts in supplies and demands for workers. The review provides an analysis of the incidence of qualitative mismatches in terms of regression towards the mean. Alternative explanations for wage consequences of qualitative mismatches are considered including assignment models with Nash bargaining. Prepared for the Expert Workshop "Skill Mismatch and Firm Dynamics: Integrating Skills with the World of Work," April 27, London, organized by the European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training (CEDEFOP) and the Centre for Research in Employment, Skills

Educational mismatches versus skill mismatches: effects on wages, job satisfaction, and on-the-job search
Education-job mismatches are reported to have serious effects on wages and other labour market outcomes. Such results are often cited in support of assignment theory, but can also be explained by institutional and human capital models. To test the assignment explanation, we examine the relation between educational mismatches and skill mismatches. In line with earlier research, educational misma...
متن کاملOn Calibration and Application of Logit-Based Stochastic Traffic Assignment Models
There is a growing recognition that discrete choice models are capable of providing a more realistic picture of route choice behavior. In particular, influential factors other than travel time that are found to affect the choice of route trigger the application of random utility models in the route choice literature. This paper focuses on path-based, logit-type stochastic route choice models, i...
متن کاملArgument-Function Mismatches in Mandarin Resultatives: A Lexical Mapping Account
This paper seeks to account for the argument-function mismatches observed in Mandarin resultative compound verbs. The account is formulated within a revised Lexical Mapping Theory which incorporates a unified mapping principle. Under the simplest and also the strictest interpretation of this mapping principle (or the θ-criterion), a composite role, formed by two composing roles, receives syntac...
متن کاملSingle-nucleotide polymorphisms and other mismatches reduce performance of quantitative PCR assays.
BACKGROUND Genome-sequencing studies have led to an immense increase in the number of known single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Designing primers that anneal to regions devoid of SNPs has therefore become challenging. We studied the impact of one or more mismatches in primer-annealing sites on different quantitative PCR (qPCR)-related parameters, such as quantitative cycle (Cq), amplificati...
متن کاملProbit-Based Traffic Assignment: A Comparative Study between Link-Based Simulation Algorithm and Path-Based Assignment and Generalization to Random-Coefficient Approach
Probabilistic approach of traffic assignment has been primarily developed to provide a more realistic and flexible theoretical framework to represent traveler’s route choice behavior in a transportation network. The problem of path overlapping in network modelling has been one of the main issues to be tackled. Due to its flexible covariance structure, probit model can adequately address the pro...
