YAPISAL KIRILMALAR ALTINDA TÜRKİYE İÇİN İŞSİZLİK HİSTERİSİNİN SINANMASI

Year 2009, Volume: 10 Issue: 2, 324 - 335, 01.07.2009

Abstract

Bu çalışmada 1923-2007 yılları arasındaki işsizlik oranları kullanılarak Türkiye’de işsizlik histerisinin var olup olmadığı sınanmıştır. Bu amaçla, kırılmalı birim kök testlerinden Perron, Zivot-Andrews ZA , Lumsdaine – Papell LP ile bir ve iki kırılmalı LM birim kök testleri kullanılarak işsizlik oranlarının incelenen dönem boyunca durağan olup olmadığı sınanmıştır. ZA ve LP birim kök testlerine göre histeri etkisinin varlığını gösteren yapısal kırılmasız birim kök temel hipotezi kabul edilirken, Perron ve LM testlerine göre ise yapısal kırılmalı birim kök temel hipotezi kabul edilmiştir. Bu sonuç, zaman boyunca meydana gelen şokların işsizliğin doğal oranında değişimler meydana getirdiğini ve işsizlik üzerinde kalıcı etki yarattığını göstermektedir.

ANALYZING THE UNEMPLOYMENT HYSTERESIS FOR TURKEY UNDER STRUCTURAL BREAKS

Year 2009, Volume: 10 Issue: 2, 324 - 335, 01.07.2009

Abstract

In this study, we examine unemployment hysteresis for Turkey over the period 1923- 2007 by using unit root tests which allow for structural breaks. We test whether unemployment rates are stationary by using Perron, Zivot-Andrews ZA , Lumsdaine – Papell LP and LM unit root tests. According to the ZA and LP tests, we find evidence of hysteresis. We find series as a unit root process with structural breaks according to both Perron and the LM tests. We conclude even transitory shocks have permanent effects on the level of unemployment and can cause natural rate of unemployment to change
