“…Labor force participation rate can be empirically explained. Studies (see Balleer, Gómez-Salvador & Turunen, 2009;Cai, 2009;Dayıoğlu & Kirdar, 2010;Luque, 2013;AaronSon et al, 2014;Reddy, 2016;Blagrave & Santoro, 2017;Chistobaev et al, 2018;Bernardi 2019) have shown that there are various areas to focus on when examining labor force participation rate. For instance, the textile sector, life cycles, marital status, and the number of children (Dayıoğlu & Kirdar, 2010;Luque, 2013), labor market slack (AaronSon et al, 2014), age and cohort effect (Balleer, Gómez-Salvador & Turunen, 2009), health status (Cai, 2009), ageing (Reddy, 2016;Blagrave & Santoro, 2017), health expenditures, gross capital formation, mortality rate, secondary school enrolment, life expectancy (Mushtaq, Mohsin, & Zaman, 2013), structural transformation, education and real wage (Mehrotra & Parida, 2017), unemployment rate, gross domestic product per capita, fertility rate (Taşseven, Altaş, & Ün, 2016) and life expectancy (Rechel, Doyle, Grundy & McKee, 2009).…”
