The results remain robust when (i) extending the
sample period from 1994-2014 to 1994-2019 and (ii) using metropolitan statistical area (MSA) level
unemployment variation instead of state-level variation.

The authors replicate Forsythe (2022), which examines how labor market transitions vary by experience over the business cycle. Using CPS data from IPUMS and new code, they confirm that hiring probability of youths is more sensitive to business-cycle conditions than for experienced individuals.

This insight helps researchers identify which cases and configurations influence results, leading to better analytical decisions. The authors suggest that the original paper lacks conclusive evidence for its hypotheses due to insufficient variation in the empirical data sample.

JCRE

@jcre.bsky.social

The replication study can replicate its results but highlights misunderstandings in the interpretation. By correcting these issues, it questions the original study's findings and elaborates on the calculation of two fsQCA fit measures—consistency and PRI scores—in the sufficiency solution.

The findings indicate that young outsiders experience segmentation due to non-linear factors such as deindustrialization, labor market coordination, employment protection, and liberalization.

The replication study supports their findings when they use the same waves as they do, but also when they extend the sample by including more countries and interview waves and use different variables for years of education.

The replication study reproduces the original OLS and 2SLS findings with the same raw data; however, the author fails to replicate some of the paper's central findings using data from more recent waves collected after the publication. Plausible explanations are also discussed.
