Effects of positive attitude on happiness and wage: Evidence from the US data
TL;DR: Using samples from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (1979), a longitudinal data set from the United States, the authors demonstrates that the worker's positive attitude affects his/her wage not only directly, but also indirectly through its effects on happiness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of positive attitude and optimism on employment: Evidence from the US data
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a bivariate probit approach to estimate the worker's employment probability equations in both cross-sectional and panel data frameworks and demonstrated that the employment of the worker, which depends on both the workers' labor market participation decision and the employer's hiring decision, is determined partly by the positive and optimistic attitude of the workers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of positive attitude on earnings: Evidence from the US longitudinal data
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined whether or not the worker's attitude to life affects his/her earnings, and they estimated wage equations with positive attitude as an explanatory variable under different econometric specifications.
Journal ArticleDOI
A bivariate probit approach to the determination of employment: a study of teen employment differentials in Los Angeles County
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a bivariate probit approach and using the 1990 Public Use Microdata Samples (PUMS) for Los Angeles County, they found that the employment of teenage workers depends on both the worker's participation decision as well as the employer's hiring decision.

Estimation of the US Federal Job Queue in the Presence of an Endogenous Union Queue
John S. Heywood,Madhu S. Mohanty +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a two-stage bivariate probabilistic model is proposed to estimate the willingness of a worker to queue for a union job in the US labour market, based on the characteristics that lead workers to seek employment in the federal sector and, as a byproduct, provide independent confirm- ation of the presence of a queue for union jobs.
