A Bayesian heterogeneous coefficients spatial autoregressive panel data model of retail fuel price rivalry

Lesage, James P.; Vance, Colin; Chih, Yao-Yu - 2016

likelihood estimation method set forth by Aquaro, Bailey and Pesaran (2015), we rely on a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC …) estimation methodology. MCMC estimates as applied here with non-informative priors will produce estimates equal to those from …

Does parenthood make happy people happier? : a lifecycle analysis using panel quantile regression

Samoilova, Evgenia; Vance, Colin - 2015

Drawing on panel data from Germany, this paper analyzes the correlates of happiness, with an eye toward isolating the role of parenthood over the lifecycle. The analysis couples a panel quantile regression with an empirical specification that captures different phases of parenthood, from the...

Markov chain Monte Carlo estimation of spatial dynamic panel models for large samples

Lesage, James P.; Chih, Yao-Yu; Vance, Colin - 2018

Focus is on efficient estimation of a dynamic space-time panel data model that incorporates spatial dependence … of spatial units and T the number of time periods. Quasi-maximum likelihood (QML) estimation in cases involving large N … estimates that require numerous inversions of large matrices. We set forth a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) estimation …
