). The novelty of this paper is the consideration of the dependence between the two error terms in the case of panel data and … balanced panel case, several models describing the evolution of the inefficiency over time and the dependence between the two … error terms. The inefficiency and noise terms being dependent, a copula function which reflects the dependence between them …

Statistical Analysis in surveys is often facing missing data. As case-wise deletion and single imputation prove to have undesired properties, multiple imputation remains as a measure to handle this problem. In a longitudinal study, where for some missing values past or future data points might...

The main goal of a scientific journal is to diffuse new knowledge. The number of citations received by a journal can be considered as a measure of this objective and, in turn, as a measure of productivity in relation to the production process in which the journals are involved. In order to...

The system GMM estimator developed by Blundell and Bond (1998) for dynamic panel data models has been widely used in empirical work; however, it does not perform well with weak instruments. This paper proposes a variation on the system GMM estimator, based on a simple transformation of the...

We propose a new control function (CF) method for binary response outcomes in a triangular system with unobserved heterogeneity of multiple dimensions. The identified CFs are the expected values of the heterogeneity terms in the reduced form equations conditional on the endogenous, Xi ≡ (xi1,...

Though ordinary least square (OLS) estimates are super-consistent with cointegrated variables, their finite-T bias can be large in the presence of endogenous feedback. Fully modified OLS (FMOLS) are parsimonious tools to measure the cointegrating [long-run] slope between integrated variables in...

This paper is concerned with developing a semiparametric panel model to explain the trend in UK temperatures and other weather outcomes over the last century. We work with the monthly averaged maximum and minimum temperatures observed at the twenty six Meteorological Office stations. The data is...

Recently, Mastromarco, Serlenga and Shin (2010) propose a two-step approach to examine dynamic transmission mechanism under which globalization factors foster technology efficiency. In this paper, we extend the MSS model by combining panel threshold regression technique advanced by Hansen...
