Abstract:
|
Optimal matching analysis is the most commonly used method to analyze career sequences. It enables researchers to calculate the distance (i.e. the dissimilarity) between individuals' careers. However, the method's primarily descriptive and explorative approach limits its scope and complicates statistical inference testing for a wide field of research questions. We introduce three extensions to optimal matching analysis that combine the method's core idea with approaches from other disciplines, thereby overcoming this weakness. In essence, these extensions allow researchers to use career sequence similarities as predictors, as outcomes, and as control variables in quantitative statistical analyses. We discuss practical recommendations and pitfalls when applying these extensions, and we outline potential avenues for future career research.
