WEIGHTED SMOOTH TRANSITION REGRESSIONS (replication data)
A new procedure is proposed for modelling nonlinearity of a smooth transition form, by allowing the transition variable to be a weighted function of lagged observations. This... -
Modes, weighted modes, and calibrated modes: evidence of clustering using mod...
We apply recent results from the statistics literature to test for multimodality of worldwide distributions of several (unweighted and population-weighted) measures of labor... -
