Source. Authors’ tabulations from WI CARES System, UI System, and Department of Labor.
Note. Tabulations include only new enrollees; all of the enrollees in January 2006 are left-censored, so we cannot observe the start-date of their spells. We exclude these censored observations from our analysis. We report in parentheses 95 percent normal bootstrap confidence intervals from at least 300 replications. All differences by column (across time periods) are significantly different from one another at the 95 percent level. UI = Unemployment Insurance.
