Union status of young men in Britain: a decade of change (replication data)
Previous empirical studies of individual union status in Britain have been cross-sectional. In contrast, we use longitudinal data from the National Child Development Study, to... -
Scale economies in electricity distribution: a semiparametric analysis (repli...
We estimate the costs of distributing electricity using data on municipal electric utilities in Ontario, Canada for the period 1993-5. The data reveal substantial evidence of... -

Real exchange rate behaviour: evidence from black markets (replication data)
The behaviour of real exchange rates (relative to the US dollar) is examined using monthly data obtained from the black markets for foreign exchange of eight Asian developing... -
An empirical analysis of alternative parametric ARCH models (replication data)
This paper presents empirical evidence on the effectiveness of eight different parametric ARCH models in describing daily stock returns. Twenty-seven years of UK daily data on a... -
Stochastic volatility models: conditional normality versus heavy-tailed distr...
Most of the empirical applications of the stochastic volatility (SV) model are based on the assumption that the conditional distribution of returns, given the latent volatility... -
Business cycle non-linearities in UK consumption and production (replication ...
This paper develops non-linear smooth transition autoregressive (STAR) models with two additive smooth transition components to capture the business cycle characteristics of UK... -
US deficit sustainability: a new approach based on multiple endogenous breaks...
Recent empirical work has questioned the consistency of US fiscal policy with an intertemporal budget constraint. Empirical results have tended to indicate that the deficit... -
Multiple comparisons with the best, with economic applications (replication d...
In this paper we discuss a statistical method called multiple comparisons with the best, or MCB. Suppose that we have N populations, and population i has parameter value i. Let... -
Asymptotically perfect and relative convergence of productivity (replication ...
In this paper we examine the extent to which countries are converging in per capita productivity levels. We propose to use cluster analysis in order to allow for the endogenous... -
The effects of real and nominal uncertainty on inflation and output growth: s...
In this paper we use GARCH-M methods to test four hypotheses about the effects of real and nominal uncertainty on average inflation and output growth in the United States from... -
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... -
Testing for ARCH in the presence of additive outliers (replication data)
In this paper we investigate the properties of the Lagrange Multiplier [LM] test for autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) and generalized ARCH (GARCH) in the... -
Numerical distribution functions of likelihood ratio tests for cointegration ...
This paper employs response surface regressions based on simulation experiments to calculate asymptotic distribution functions for the Johansen-type likelihood ratio tests for... -
Investigating stability and linearity of a German M1 money demand function (r...
Starting from a linear error correction model (ECM) the stability and linearity of a German M1 money demand function are investigated, applying smooth transition regression... -
Non-linearities in cross-country growth regressions: a semiparametric approac...
In this paper we employ an additive semiparametric partially linear model to uncover the way that initial output and schooling levels affect growth rates. Our results based on... -
Exchange rate target zone models: a Bayesian evaluation (replication data)
This paper develops a Bayesian approach to estimating exchange rate target zone models and rational expectations models in general. It also introduces a simultaneous-equation...
