Technology Shocks and Hours Worked: A Fractional Integration PerspectiveLuis A. Gil-AlanaUniversity of Navarra - Department of Economics Antonio MorenoUniversity of Navarra - School of Economics December 30, 2005 Abstract: Previous research has found that the response of hours worked to a technology shock crucially depends on whether the variable hours is assumed to be an I(0) or an I(1) variable ex-ante. In this paper we employ a multivariate fractionally integrated model which allows us to determine simultaneously the order of integration of hours worked and the response of hours to a technology shock. We find that hours fall on impact in response to a positive technology shock.
