The Short-Run Supply of Nurse's Time
TLDR
In this paper, an analysis of married professional nurses' labor supply response to changes in wage rates and in husband's earnings and to the impact of other inter-household differences is presented.Abstract:
With data obtained from married professional nurses, estimates are made of their labor supply response to changes in wage rates and in husband's earnings and to the impact of other interhousehold differences. Analysis was conducted for two time periods, and for each we estimated models to generate the probability of labor force participation and the expected amount of time worked, given participation. In contrast to the flow of labor supplied by employed married nurses, we find the participation decision is not dependent on the wage rate. Both dimensions of labor supply are dependent on husband's earnings. The results also provide strong evidence that the supply curve is backward-bending just beyond the range of our observations.read more

Implications of an aging registered nurse workforce.
TL;DR: The primary factor that has led to the aging of the RN workforce appears to be the decline in younger women choosing nursing as a career during the last 2 decades, and unless this trend is reversed, theRN workforce will continue to age, and eventually shrink, and will not meet projected long-term workforce requirements.

Cusp catastrophe model of employee turnover.
TL;DR: In this article, a cusp catastrophe model was developed to explain job turnover of nursing employees, and the temporal dynamics of the catastrophe model suggest that leavers experience lower organization commitment than new arrivals.

The labour market for nursing: a review of the labour supply literature
TL;DR: Current understanding of the labour supply behaviour of nurses is assessed, an agenda for further research is proposed, and American and British economics literature that focuses on empirical econometric studies based on the classical static labour supply model is reviewed.

Labor-Force Participation Rates and the Supply of Labor
TL;DR: In this paper, the independent variables in such studies are the wage rate and "other income" (plus demographic and geographic control variables), and the estimates of wage elasticity obtained from equations like (1) have often been decomposed into a substitution and an income effect, using the Slutzky equation (2).
