  1. The table displays the estimated coefficients of ordererd probit models. Heteroskedasticity-robust standard errors are in parentheses. "Preferred" reproduces the results from column (5) in Table 4. “Variation” tightens the definition of ALMP and the short run, eliminating 6 studies. UE is for unemployment rate. ** denotes p < 0.05.
