    Cyclical and structural determinants of involuntary part-time employment in Turkey
    (ROUTLEDGE JOURNALS, TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD) ERİŞ DERELİ, BİLGE; Duzgun Oncel, Burcu; Eris Dereli, Bilge
    We examine the correlates of involuntary part-time employment in Turkey. We contribute to previous studies regarding Turkey on two aspects. First, we focus on the cyclical and structural components that capture both labour demand and supply conditions, respectively. Second, we control for sample selection bias by applying a recursive bivariate model. We find that involuntary part-time employment is more common among males and moves with unemployment rate. Estimation results present a strong association between involuntary part-time employment and structural factors.

    A Pseudo-panel analysis of the returns to field of study
    (2021-05-01) ERİŞ DERELİ, BİLGE; ERİŞ DERELİ B.
    This study employs pseudo-panel fixed-effects approach to estimate the returns to field of study in Turkey. Repeated cross sections of Turkish Labor Force Surveys between 2016-2019 are used. Year of birth and region are used as grouping variables. The results indicate significant earnings differences across field of study when cohort-fixed effects are controlled. Relative to the base field, Education Sciences, there are higher returns to Environmental Sciences & Mathematics & Statistics and Engineering & Manufacturing & Architecture and Health & Welfare. On the other hand, there are lower returns to Social Sciences & Journalism. The earnings differences are insignificant for the fields Art & Humanities & Languages and Business Administration & Law and Agriculture & Veterinary.

    Specific human capital intensity in Turkish manufacturing firms: The role of foreign ownership
    (2022-01-01) ERİŞ DERELİ, BİLGE; ERİŞ DERELİ B.
    Foreign direct investment (FDI) and human capital are considered as essential factors of both firms’ and countries’ growth. This property made them to be a major focus of policy in many nations. There is a large literature on the relationship between FDI (foreign direct investment) and growth, as well as the relationship between human capital and growth. However, despite its great empirical and policy relevance, the specific link between foreign ownership and human capital is a rather under-researched empirical subject. The main aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between foreign ownership and specific human capital in Turkish manufacturing sector. A micro level analysis is carried out using firm-level data retrieved at World Bank’s Turkey Enterprise Survey for the year 2019. Using fractional response regression methodology, several models are estimated to see if foreign ownership has an impact on firm human capital intensity, as well as other firm characteristics, industries, and regions. The key findings can be summarized as follows: i) private foreign ownership has a negative effect on firm-level specific human capital intensity; ii) being a larger or older firm negatively affects firms’ specific human capital intensity; iii) export intensity is the only firm characteristic that has a positive effect of specific human capital intensity.
