Posterior odds comparison of a symmetric low-price, sealed-bid auction within...
I attempt to decide, using the posterior odds ratio, whether the symmetric common-value paradigm or the symmetric independent-private-values paradigm is a more probable... -
Conducting inference in semiparametric duration models under inequality restr...
Using a four-month panel of revised Current Population Survey data from September-December 1993, we extend the class of semiparametric hazard models of the type first studied by... -
Adaptive estimation of cointegrated models: simulation evidence and an applic...
The paper reports simulation and empirical evidence on the finite-sample performance of adaptive estimators in cointegrated systems. Adaptive estimators are asymptotically... -
Identifying interdependent behaviour in an empirical model of labour supply (...
In this paper we test a particular form of interdependent behaviour, namely the hypothesis that individuals' choices of hours of work are influenced by the average hours of work... -
Causal ordering and ‘The bank lending channel’ (replication data)
The bank lending channel implies the Federal Reserve can influence real income by controlling the level of intermediated loans. Using the notion of causality developed by Simon... -
A general dependence test and applications (replication data)
We describe a test, based on the correlation integral, for the independence of a variable and a vector that can be used with serially dependent data. Monte Carlo simulations... -
Intertemporal substitution in import demand and habit formation (replication ...
To study non-durable import demand, we extend previous work done by Clarida (1994) and Ceglowski (1991) by considering a two-good version of the lifecycle model in which we... -
Optimal univariate inflation forecasting with symmetric stable shocks (replic...
Monthly inflation in the United States indicates non-normality in the form of either occasional big shocks or marked changes in the level of the series. We develop a univariate... -
Excess capacity: a permanent characteristic of US airlines? (replication data)
This paper examines the permanence of excess capacity in the US airline industry. To avoid the problems with the standard engineering measure of capacity utilization, load... -
Interdependent preferences: an econometric analysis (replication data)
The theoretical model of Gaertner (1974) and Pollak (1976) for the interdependence of preferences in the Linear Expenditure System is estimated for a cross-section of... -
Understanding spot and forward exchange rate regressions (replication data)
Using the Kalman filter, we obtain maximum likelihood estimates of a permanent-transitory components model for log spot and forward dollar prices of the pound, the franc, and... -
The dynamic Laurent flexible form and the demand for money (replication data)
I derive the dynamic full Laurent model to estimate economic models that assume a dynamic process. The application in this paper is to use the dynamic full Laurent to estimate a... -
Are financial spreads useful indicators of future inflation and output growth...
This paper seeks to address the policy issue of the usefulness of financial spreads as indicators of future inflation and output growth in the countries of the European Union,... -
Econometric methods for fractional response variables with an application to ...
We develop attractive functional forms and simple quasi-likelihood estimation methods for regression models with a fractional dependent variable. Compared with log-odds type... -
Numerical distribution functions for unit root and cointegration tests (repli...
This paper employs response surface regressions based on simulation experiments to calculate distribution functions for some well-known unit root and cointegration test... -
Comparing Fourier and translog specifications of multiproduct technology: Evi...
Selecting a functional form for a cost or profit function in applied production analysis is a crucial step in assessing the characteristics of a technology. The present study... -
A non-linear model of the real US/UK exchange rate (replication data)
This paper provides a framework for building and estimating non-linear real exchange rate models. The approach derives the stationary distribution from a continuous time error... -
Semiparametric estimation of a hedonic price function (replication data)
Previous work on the preferred specification of hedonic price models usually recommended a Box-Cox model. In this paper we note that any parametric model involves implicit...
