Match each type of unemployment in Column I with its appropriate economic definition or characteristic in Column II. Which of the following pair combinations correctly matches all items?
- Disguised UnemploymentOccurs when more workers are engaged in an activity than necessary, resulting in zero or negative marginal productivity of labor.
- Structural UnemploymentOccurs when there is a fundamental mismatch between worker skills and the technical demands of available jobs due to technological shift or industrial reorganization.
- Frictional UnemploymentTemporary unemployment that arises when individuals are in the process of moving from one job to another or searching for their first employment.
- Seasonal UnemploymentUnemployment that occurs at predictable times of the year due to weather variations or agricultural harvest cycles.
Cevap
Disguised Unemployment matches with zero marginal productivity of labor; Structural Unemployment matches with skill mismatch due to economic shifts; Frictional Unemployment matches with transitional job search gaps; and Seasonal Unemployment matches with cyclic work demand tied to specific times of the year.
Each unemployment type corresponds strictly to its underlying economic mechanism: Disguised unemployment reflects zero marginal labor productivity; Structural unemployment reflects economic/technological skill mismatch; Frictional unemployment represents transitional job search lag; and Seasonal unemployment reflects weather or harvest cycle fluctuations.
