Impacts of Regional Growth on Farmland Development in the Northeast U.S.
Hailu, Yohannes; Brown, Cheryl - Regional Research Institute (RRI), West Virginia University - 2007
This study models the relationship between regional growth and agricultural land development in the Northeast United States. A system of simultaneous equations is estimated using three-stage-least squares on county-level data. Results indicate that regional growth puts upward pressure on...

Incubation Push or Business Pull? Investigating the Geography of US Business Incubators
Qian, Haifeng; Haynes, Kingsley - Regional Research Institute (RRI), West Virginia University - 2010
The primary purposes of this paper are to present the geographic distribution of US business incubators and to explore geographically bounded factors that influence the location of business incubators. Our data show that US business incubators are unevenly distributed across the urban/rural...

Minimum Wages and Teen Employment: A Spatial Panel Approach
Kalenkoski, Charlene; Lacombe, Donald - Regional Research Institute (RRI), West Virginia University - 2011
The authors employ spatial econometric techniques and Annual Averages data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics for 1990-2004 to examine how changes in the minimum wage affect teen employment. Spatial econometric techniques account for the fact that employment is correlated across states....
