Özet:

Turkey, which is a developing economy, is among the important economic policies to reduce unemployment, which is also an economic problem for Turkey. Although the efforts to reduce unemployment vary from country to country, unemployment for each country is one of the major economic challenges faced. Therefore, a lot of theoretical and empirical research on the problem of unemployment is carried out. When the literature is studied, the theory of economics reveals three basic approaches to the problem of unemployment. These are expressed as unemployment hysteric hypothesis, natural ratio hypothesis and structural approach. In the unemployment hysteric hypothesis, it is suggested that the unemployment series is not stable (that it has a unit root process with an econometric expression). The natural rate hypothesis indicates that unemployment shocks have a temporary effect and that the unemployment series is stable. In the structural approach, it is stated that the shocks that arise are temporary and that the series of unemployment with the breakdown is stable. In this study, for Turkey, the 2005:January and 2019:June period:Monthly unemployment rate for over fifteen years of age was used data. In the study, the Zivot-Andrews unit root test (ZA), developed by Lee and Strazicich (LS), which took into account structural breakdown, used the single broken unit root test and the durability of the series was studied. In the study, according to the results of the ZA test, the H0 hypothesis, which is in the form of "serial unit contains root without structural breakdown", and according to the LS unit root test, the basic hypothesis, which is in the form of "serial unit contains root with structural breakdown" is not rejected. This means that the number of women unemployment rates in Turkey is not stable. Therefore, the conclusion has been made that the hysteric effect on women’s unemployment is valid in Turkey.
