We examine the relationship between exports and output for a small developing country Nepal which has received little attention in such literature. Using multivariate cointegration and vector error correction model for the data of 1975 to 2011 we find long-run relationship between real exports,...

This study examines the impact of the gubernatorial partisanship on the growth of health care expenditures for the panel data set of 50 U.S. states over the 1991 to 2009 period. Using the parametric regression discontinuity design, I find no partisan effect on the growth of state's per capita...

This article investigates whether or not the Nepalese stock market is efficient in weak form with respect to economically neutral behavioural variables. Simple OLS technique with White's heteroskedasticity-corrected standard errors is used to test the relationship between stock returns and...

This paper examines the impact of local (county-level) house prices on individual self-reported mental health using individual level data from the United States Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System between 2005 and 2011. Exploiting a fixed-effects model that relies on within-county...

This study examines the impact of gubernatorial partisanship on the growth of healthcare expenditures (HCE) for a panel dataset of 50 U.S. states over the 1991-2009 period. Using the parametric regression discontinuity design, I find no partisan effect on the growth of state's per capita real...

In this paper we extend the research on the relationship between economically neutral behavioural variables and stock returns documented in Saunders (1993), Hirshleifer and Shumway (2003), Cao and Wei (2004, 2005) and Kamstra, Kramer and Levi (2003) by examining a stock market of a single small...
