Initial impacts of the Ticket to Work program: estimates based on exogenous variation in Ticket mail months
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents results from an impact analysis of the Ticket to Work (TTW) program, as implemented by the Social Security Administration (SSA) from 2002 through 2007. For new, young Social Security Disability beneficiaries, we use exogenous variation in the month of Ticket mailing to rigorously estimate impacts of TTW on beneficiary outcomes over a 48-month period following the start of Ticket mailings in the beneficiary’s state. We find substantial impacts on enrollment for employment services with TTW-qualified providers, but no consistent evidence of impacts on the number of months in which beneficiaries did not receive benefits because of work, or on other outcomes. JEL classification: H55; I38

Enhanced Ticket - Based Qos Routing Algorithms
Quality of Service (QoS) routing in computer networks is an important component in QoS architectures in order to provide end-to-end QoS support. Two major issues make QoS routing difficult: (1) Most of the QoS routing problems are NP-hard, such as the Delay Constraint Least Cost Routing (DCLCR) problem; (2) Imprecise network information degrades the routing performance. Using DCLCR problem as a...

متن کاملReassessing Models for the Study of Split-ticket Voting
Burden and Kimball (1998) report that, by using the King estimation procedure for inferring individual-level behavior from aggregate data, they are the first to produce accurate estimates of split-ticket voting rates in congressional districts. There are, however, several reasons to doubt that the King estimation procedure does, in fact, produce accurate cross-level inferences. We show that the...
