A Beta-logistic Model for the Analysis of Sequential Labor Force Participation by Married Women
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalization of the cross-section logit model was proposed to deal with sequences of discrete events in panel data. But the model was applied to panel data on labor force participation of married women and the distribution of participation probabilities is U-shaped, indicating that most women have participation probabilities near zero or near one.

Abstract: In this paper, we discuss statistical problems that arise in studying sequences of quantal responses (e.g., labor force participation) in panel data on heterogeneous populations (i.e., populations in which there is unobserved variation in response probabilities). Assuming that response probabilities are governed by a beta distribution, we derive a generalization on of the cross-section logit model to enable it to deal with sequences of discrete events in panel data. This model is applied to panel data on labor force participation of married women. One of our findings is that the distribution of participation probabilities is U shaped, indicating that most women have participation probabilities near zero or near one.

A Systematic Review on Research Methodologies for Residential Mobility
Eui-Chul Chung,Dong-Hoon Oh +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed possible research methodologies to analyze household residential mobility and proposed a simple theoretical framework for residential mobility decisions, and examined discrete choice models with four broad categories; binary choice models (logit or probit), multinomial logit models (multinomial, conditional, nested, and dynamic), and discussed the results of existing empirical studies.
