    <description>Titel: Is euro area money demand (still) stable? Cointegrated VAR versus single equation techniques
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Autoren: Belke, Ansgar; Czudaj, Robert
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Zusammenfassung: In this paper we present an empirically stable euro area money demand model. Using a sample period until 2009:2 shows that the current financial and economic crisis that started in 2007 does not appear to have any noticeable impact on the stability of the euro area money demand function. We also compare single equation methods like the ARDL approach, FM-OLS, CCR and DOLS with the commonly used cointegrated Johansen VAR framework and show that the former are under certain circumstances more appropriate than the latter. What is more, they deliver results that are more in line with the economic theory. Hence, FMOLS, CCR and DOLS are useful in estimating standard money demand as well, although they have only been rarely applied for this purpose in previous studies.</description>

    <description>Titel: Interrelationships among locus of control and years in management and unemployment: Differences by gender
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Autoren: Trzcinski, Eileen; Holst, Elke
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Zusammenfassung: This paper focuses on gender differences in the role played by locus of control within a model that predicts outcomes for men and women at two opposite poles of the labour market: high level managerial / leadership positions and unemployment. Based on data from the German Socio-Economic Panel, we investigated the extent to which gender differences occur in the processes by which highly positive and negative labour market outcomes are determined and in the processes underlying the development of one particular aspect of personality, that is, locus of control. Overall gender differences were more pronounced in the results for years in managerial/ leadership positions than for locus of control. Negative labour market states were also marked by gender differences, but not to the same degree observed for positive states.</description>

    <description>Titel: Long memory and volatility dynamics in the US dollar exchange rate
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Autoren: Caporale, Guglielmo Maria; Gil-Alana, Luis A.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Zusammenfassung: This paper focuses on nominal exchange rates, specifically the US dollar rate vis-à-vis the Euro and the Japanese Yen at a daily frequency. We model both absolute values of returns and squared returns using long-memory techniques, being particularly interested in volatility modelling and forecasting given their importance for FOREX dealers. Compared with previous studies using a standard fractional integration framework such as Granger and Ding (1996), we estimate a more general model which allows for dependence not only at the zero but also at other frequencies. The results show differences in the behaviour of the two series: a long-memory cyclical model and a standard I(d) model seem to be the most appropriate for the US dollar rate vis-à-vis the Euro and the Japanese Yen respectively.</description>

    <description>Titel: Do ethnic minorities 'stretch' their time? Evidence from the UK time use survey
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Autoren: Zaiceva, Anzelika; Zimmermann, Klaus F.
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;Zusammenfassung: This paper investigates the effect of ethnicity on time spent on overlapped household production, work and leisure activities employing the 2000-2001 UK Time Use Survey. We find that, unconditionally, white females manage to stretch their time the most by an additional 233 minutes per day and non-white men stretch their time the least. The three secondary activities that are most often combined with other (primary) activities in terms of time spent on them are social activities including resting, passive leisure and childcare. Regression results indicate that non-white ethnic minorities engage less in multitasking than whites, with Pakistani and Bangladeshi males spending the least time. The gap is present for both ethnic minority males and females, although females in general engage more in multitasking. The effect is also heterogeneous across different sub-groups. We then discuss several potential interpretations and investigate whether these differences in behavior may also relate to opportunity costs of non-market time, different preferences and tastes of ethnic minorities, integration experience, family composition, household productivity and other.</description>
