Instruction 13.42
Given below are results from the regression analysis where the dependent variable is the number of weeks a worker is unemployed due to a layoff (Unemploy) and the independent variables are the age of the worker (Age) , the number of years of education received (Edu) , the number of years at the previous job (Job Yr) , a dummy variable for marital status (Married: 1 = married, 0 = otherwise) , a dummy variable for head of household (Head: 1 = yes, 0 = no) and a dummy variable for management position (Manager: 1 = yes, 0 = no) . We shall call this Model 1.

• B) On average, those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 14.30 weeks, while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
• C) On average, those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 1.35 weeks, while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
• D) On average, those who are in a management position are estimated to stay jobless shorter by approximately 24.82 weeks, while holding constant the effects of all the remaining independent variables.
