This paper analyzes the reciprocal lagged relationship between depressive symptoms and employment status. We find that severe depressive symptoms contribute to a 25.6% increase in subsequent non-employment rates, a 20.7% increase in non-participation rates and 34.2% increase in unemployment rates, for men. Similar, although weaker, marginal effects are found for women. However, we find no evidence for men and only limited evidence for women that unemployment, non-employment, or non-participation raises the risks of severe depressive symptoms. We observe an impact of labor market status on depressive symptoms only when using point-in-time measures.
本文分析了抑郁症状与就业状况之间的相互滞后关系。我们发现,严重的抑郁症状会导致男性随后的非就业率增加 25.6%,不参与率增加 20.7%,失业率增加 34.2%。虽然对于女性来说,边际效应类似,但强度较弱。然而,我们没有发现男性失业、非就业或不参与会增加严重抑郁症状风险的证据,只有有限的证据表明女性存在这种情况。我们仅在使用时点测量时才观察到劳动力市场状况对抑郁症状的影响。
