One way to study unemployment quantitatively is through examining its association with other variables of interest, using a survey. An example is the study by Dooley and Prause (1995). That being said, Pernice (1996) advised using a qualitative approach to deepen understanding in the unemployment research. Here are the references.

Good luck,
You are looking at the wrong end of the telescope. What are the research questions that you are trying to answer? Given that, what are the appropriate methods?
