Congratulations to Assistant Professor Vince Hopkins and Postdoctoral Research Fellow Christian Schimpf for receiving a 2024/25 Stone Research Grant!
The Stone Centre on Wealth and Income Inequality grants support faculty-led research projects that advance understanding of wealth and income inequality in Canada and around the world.
In their research project, “Negative Financial Shocks, Job Search Behaviour, and Wealth and Income Inequality,” Hopkins and Schimpf explore how negative financial shocks impact job search behaviour across different wealth-income groups.
Using innovative mouse-tracking technology, their study examines how jobseekers allocate attention to job features like salary, location, and benefits. The study aims to shed light on the interplay between financial stability and job search behaviour in an era of rising inequality.
