However, employment impacts for Syrian refugees attenuated by four months (0.3 percentage points, p = 0.449).

Goal-Setting Job-Search Nudge
At two months, the nudge increased Syrian job applications by 55% (0.648 additional applications, p = 0.016) and Jordanian job search participation by 6.5 percentage points (p = 0.030) [12]. However, impacts on actual wage employment faded by four months (+0.003 for Syrians, p = 0.449; -0.002 for Jordanians, p = 0.544) [13].
