CHOOSING THE VARIABLES TO ESTIMATE SINGULAR DSGE MODELS (replication data)
We propose two methods to choose the variables to be used in the estimation of the structural parameters of a singular DSGE model. The first selects the vector of observables... -
ESTIMATING FISCAL LIMITS: THE CASE OF GREECE (replication data)
This paper uses Bayesian methods to estimate a real business cycle model that allows for interactions among fiscal policy instruments, the stochastic fiscal limit and sovereign... -
POSTERIOR‐PREDICTIVE EVIDENCE ON US INFLATION USING EXTENDED NEW KEYNESIAN PH...
Changing time series properties of US inflation and economic activity, measured as marginal costs, are modeled within a set of extended New Keynesian Phillips curve (NKPC)... -
SEMI-NONPARAMETRIC ESTIMATION OF CONSUMER SEARCH COSTS (replication data)
This paper studies the estimation of the distribution of non-sequential search costs. We show that the search cost distribution is identified by combining data from multiple... -
CONDITIONALLY HETEROSKEDASTIC FACTOR MODELS WITH SKEWNESS AND LEVERAGE EFFECT...
Conditional heteroskedasticity, skewness and leverage effects are well-known features of financial returns. The literature on factor models has often made assumptions that... -

SEMIPARAMETRIC VECTOR MEM (replication data)
Financial time series are often non-negative-valued (volumes, trades, durations, realized volatility, daily range) and exhibit clustering. When joint dynamics is of interest,... -
THE ROLE OF TIME-VARYING PRICE ELASTICITIES IN ACCOUNTING FOR VOLATILITY CHAN...
There has been a systematic increase in the volatility of the real price of crude oil since 1986, followed by a decline in the volatility of oil production since the early... -
HOW EFFECTIVE ARE UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFIT SANCTIONS? LOOKING BEYOND UNEMPLOYMENT...
This paper provides a comprehensive evaluation of the effects of benefit sanctions on post-unemployment outcomes such as post-unemployment employment stability and earnings. We... -
An alternative measure of intergenerational income mobility based on a random...
We propose an alternative measure of the degree to which income status is transmitted from one generation to another. Our indicator of intergenerational income mobility is based... -
Is God in the details? A reexamination of the role of religion in economic gr...
Barro and McCleary (2003, Religion and economic growth across countries. American Journal of Sociology 68: 760-781) is a key research contribution in the new literature... -
Non-Gaussian dynamic Bayesian modelling for panel data (replication data)
A first order autoregressive non-Gaussian model for analysing panel data is proposed. The main feature is that the model is able to accommodate fat tails and also skewness, thus... -
Dichotomous‐choice contingent valuation with ‘dont know’ responses and misrep...
A new approach is presented that simultaneously deals with Misreporting and Don't Know (DK) responses within a dichotomous-choice contingent valuation framework. Utilising a... -
Consumer benefits from increased competition in shopping outlets: Measuring t...
Non-traditional retail outlets, including supercenters, warehouse club stores, and mass merchandisers, have nearly doubled their share of consumer food-at-home expenditures in... -
The welfare effects of restricted hospital choice in the US medical care mark...
Managed care health insurers in the USA restrict their enrollees' choice of hospitals to within specific networks. This paper considers the implications of these restrictions. A... -
A forecast comparison of volatility models: does anything beat a GARCH(1,1)? ...
We compare 330 ARCH-type models in terms of their ability to describe the conditional variance. The models are compared out-of-sample using DM?$ exchange rate data and IBM...
