Abstract
Pace of life is something that is acquired at a fundamental level of the individual, difficult to change and that is producing cultural patterns. In this paper, we set out to analyze whether a misfit in match in the pace of life between individual and society affects labor market outcomes. A mismatch may contribute to an explanation for migrants comparatively worse labor market participation. We use the German Socio-Economic Panel (G-SOEP), which contains the data of first- or second-generation immigrants to Germany since 1994. We compare different gaps in pace of life between home country and Germany. We find evidence that differences in the pace of life may contribute to our understanding of migrant labor market participation.
