    • QUOTE: One reason for the slow pickup: A wide swath of Americans are underemployed or on the sidelines of the labor market, serving as a large pool of available labor. The share of Americans working or looking for work in December fell to 62.7%, matching the lowest level since 1978. The latest figure shows more Americans dropped out of the workforce.

    • ABSTRACT: A proposed new age-adjusted labor force participation rate eliminates the effect of changes in the age distribution; according to the new criterion, increases in women’s labor force participation from 1960–2000 would have been even greater if shifts in the age distribution had not occurred
