A few studies utilize natural experiments to analyse the effect of changes in legislation or eligibility thresholds on the group of eligible individuals, applying difference-in-differences or regression discontinuity approaches (Imbens and Angrist 1994).
Applying difference-in-difference methods to data from the IAB Establishment Panel, we do not find a reduction in the training incidence but a slight reduction in the intensity of training at treated establishments.
Applying difference-in-differences techniques and non-parametric matching, we find adverse effects on the probability to be in work and on wages earned in the new job, which are larger for older workers than for prime-age workers.
Applying difference-in-differences estimation techniques to data of the IAB Establishment Panel 2011 2015, the analysis contributes to the literature on training and minimum wages in three aspects.
If the mean is not constant, the time series can be reduced to stationary process by applying differencing.
Ideal conditions for applying difference-in-differences analysis require that in the absence of the policy intervention the average outcomes for the treatment and control groups would be parallel over time.
In this study, we apply difference approximation methods to facilitate the calculation of the group refractive index of air (GRA) over all calculable wavelengths.
Hammond et al. [ 7] and Park et al. [ 8] only applied difference tests, which ignores the question which difference would be relevant biologically.
If normalization is not applied, differences in P in the field could be due to the time of application e.g., spring versus autumn.
For statistical analysis, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney rank sum test was applied; differences were considered significant at p < 0.05.
In our view, the lack of a national evidence-based follow-up scheme justifies the applied differences between frequencies in outpatient visits between groups.
