There is an increasing awareness of the potential of nonlinear modeling in regional science, which can partly be explained by the recognition of the limitations of conventional equilibrium models in complex situationsand partly by the easy availability and accessibility of sophisticated...

In this paper we use Monte Carlo simulation to investigate the impact of effect size heterogeneity on the results of a … effects meta-estimators under three alternative scenarios of effect size heterogeneity. We distinguish heterogeneity in effect … size variance, heterogeneity due to a varying true underlying effect across primary studies, and heterogeneity due to a non …

In non-experimental sciences the errors associated with model misspecifications in primarystudies carry over to meta-analysis. We use Monte Carlo simulations to analyse the effects ofthese misspecifications on results of a meta-analysis using a meta-estimator that calculates asimple average...

Accident costs are an important component of the external costs of traffic, a substantial part of whichis related to fatal accidents. The evaluation of fatal accident costs crucially depends on theavailability of an estimate for the economic value of a statistical life. The aim of the...
