The fact that both groups share similar dynamic adjustments in terms of participation rates and employment levels, but unemployment rates are more persistent in "low unemployment" regions, implies that spatial mobility is more relevant to explain relative adjustments in the "high unemployment" regions.
First, Lindsey et al. (2005) found that fathers of difficult (i.e., fussier, less adaptable, more persistent, and less sociable as rated by mothers) 14-month-old infants demonstrated relatively greater observed intrusive (or undermining) coparenting.
It is possible that if we had been more persistent our overall NAF success rates may have improved a little, although we consider it unlikely that this would have changed our results substantially.
Hopper [ 2, 10] suggested that more complex erosional patterns in the TRZ led to recurrent fragmentation and isolation of populations in the late Tertiary and Quaternary, hence more rapid speciation, while the comparative stability of the lateritic soils in the HRZ favoured larger, more persistent populations, and a lower extinction rate.
In another study relating to asthma [ 29], severe cases were more frequent in females and more persistent in adulthood, with higher mortality rates after 40 years of age.
We expect that for many more persistent infections, the assumption of an exponential rate of disappearance from the infectious state will be incorrect.
Within the first year, the unemployment rate and the activity rate absorb about 34 and 38%%, respectively, of the labour demand shock.16 Compared to the whole sample, the response of unemployment is weaker and more persistent; in contrast, the response of the activity rate is larger and more persistent.
Milk yield was not different between diets (12.1 kg/day for ByFat, 11.7 kg/day for C), although cows fed ByFat were more persistent and lost body condition at a faster rate than control cows.
The decay in neutrophil numbers after 4 weeks was by far slower than after 5 days, suggesting that inflammation developing at lower dose rate is longer lasting and more persistent.
By comparing retrieval quality metrics (29, 47), we find a lower abandonment rate and higher reformulation rate for PubMed (Table 6), implying that PubMed users are more persistent in pursuing their information needs than users of other search systems.
