In the light of persistent regional disparities in Germany, a wide range of studies discuss the role of regional characteristics in explaining the mobility behavior of individuals. Although multi-stage mobility theories underline the importance of regional structures particularly within the first stage of the decision-making process – whereas the actual mobility behavior is often seen as being dependent ...

The present study models mobility dispositions as a function of individual-level as well as regional covariates and includes interactions between these two levels. With this approach, some light can be shed on the underlying mechanisms concerning regional structures in the decision-making process of regional mobility. The empirical findings exhibit considerable main and interaction effects regarding ...

Predictive modeling methods from the field of machine learning have become a popular tool across various disciplines for exploring and analyzing diverse data. These methods often do not require specific prior knowledge about the functional form of the relationship under study and are able to adapt to complex non-linear and non-additive interrelations between the outcome and its predictors while focusing ...

The present study discusses the usage of non-linear constraints in regression models with multiple categorical outcomes. With this approach, effect differences between equations are made accessible to statistical tests while potential differences in residual variation are explicitly taken into account. In this context, it can be shown that the techniques reviewed by Williams (2010) are conjointly equivalent ...

Analysing mobility decisions has been on the research agenda of various disciplines for many years, resulting in a diversity of conceptual and statistical approaches. However, previous empirical studies typically model regional mobility from an actor-centred perspective which lacks to take the contextual embeddedness of individuals in regions and partnerships into account. Against this background, ...

The paper investigates unemployment behaviour in Germany and the UK between 1995 and 2005 based on data from national panel studies. The study focuses on the investigation of covariate effects like gender, age and education on the duration of unemployment. Dynamic duration time models are used in which covariate effects are allowed to vary smoothly with unemployment duration. The intention of the paper ...
