Job growth I think, but unemployment is important too. Labor participation rate doesn't really matter since no one looks at it. It is something people can "feel" though. But having their parents and grandparents retiring doesn't feel like a bad economy, which is the main reason why labor participation is going down rather than completely dispirited workers who remove themselves from the workforce.
