The rate of learning-by-doing: estimates from a search-matching model (replic...
We construct and estimate by maximum likelihood a job search model where wages are set by Nash bargaining and idiosyncratic productivity follows a geometric Brownian motion. The... -
Why are gasoline prices sticky? A test of alternative models of price adjustm...
Macroeconomic models of business cycles rely on the assumption that firms adjust prices infrequently to generate the short-run non-neutrality of money documented by the monetary... -
Decision making under risk in Deal or No Deal (replication data)
We analyse the choices of 399 contestants in the Australian version of the television game show Deal or No Deal. We calculate risk aversion bounds for each contestant, revealing... -
Forecast encompassing tests and probability forecasts (replication data)
We consider tests of forecast encompassing for probability forecasts, for both quadratic and logarithmic scoring rules. We propose test statistics for the null of forecast... -
Models of stochastic choice and decision theories: why both are important for...
We select a menu of seven popular decision theories and embed each theory in five models of stochastic choice, including tremble, Fechner and random utility model. We find that... -
Time-varying yield curve dynamics and monetary policy (replication data)
Monetary policy, the yield curve and the private sector behaviour of the US economy are modelled as a time-varying structural vector autoregression. The monetary policy shocks... -
What are the effects of fiscal policy shocks? (replication data)
We propose and apply a new approach for analyzing the effects of fiscal policy using vector autoregressions. Specifically, we use sign restrictions to identify a government... -
Health and work of the elderly: subjective health measures, reporting errors ...
This paper explores the interrelation between health and work decisions of older workers. For this, two issues are of relevance. Firstly, health and work may be endogenously... -
Compensatory inter vivos gifts (replication data)
Parents' transfer motives are important for understanding, e.g., macroeconomics, income (re)distribution, savings, and public finance. Using data from six biennial waves of the... -
The relationship between wage growth and wage levels (replication data)
We estimate the covariance between the permanent component of wages and a random coefficient on experience in models both with potential experience and with actual experience.... -
Aggregation is not the solution: the PPP puzzle strikes back (replication data)
Recently, Imbs, Mumtaz, Ravn and Rey (2005, hereinafter IMRR) have argued that much of the purchasing power parity (PPP) puzzle is due to upwardly biased estimates of... -
Comovements and heterogeneity in the euro area analyzed in a non-stationary d...
This paper establishes stylized facts on comovements and heterogeneity of individual euro area countries' output and price developments in the past two decades. For this... -
A re-examination of the stationarity of inflation (replication data)
In a recent examination of the integrated nature of inflation, Culver and Papell (Journal of Applied Econometrics, 1997) applied a range of unit root and stationarity tests to...
