Periods of realization: 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 2000-2007. • Socio-economic Panel (SOEP) www.diw.de/deutsch/soep/ Cross-sectional repeated sample with split-panel is used. Data on households and individuals is included separately. Amount of sampling 11000 households with more than 20000 individuals starting from 1984

  7. Methodology description • Methods in use: Multinominal regression Dependent variable: Labour Market Status Independent variables: Sex Age Residential Location: Region (Russia: 7 Federal Districts Germany: 16 Federal Lands), Urban vs. Rural, Regional characteristics (average rate of unemplozment and average wage) Education (School, Vacational Training, Higher Education, Postgraduate Studies) Income (Personal Income, Spouse Income, other family members income) Work Experience (worked or not)

  8. Results anticipated • Youth who live in regions with high average unemployment rates are less likely to have a job • Youth who live in regions with high average wage level are more likely to have a job • Youth who live in the capital of the country and in regional centers in Russia as well as in Germany are more likely to have a job • Youth who live in urban areas in Russia as well as in Germany are more likely to have a job than those who live in rural areas • Youth with higher education level are more likely to have a job than those who have lower education level even in regions with high average level of unemployment and low average wage level

  9. Results delimitations • The results could be improved by including additional factors in the model, such as social ties, informal practices, etc.
