This paper proposes an estimation method for a repeated auction game under the presence of capacity contraints. The … estimation strategy is computationally simple as it does not require solving for the equilibrium of the game. It uses a two stage … estimation method to repeated highway construction procurement auctions in the state of California between May 1996 and May 1999 …

measure how these estimates vary by country, over time, and by estimation method. We find evidence reporting (or file drawer …') bias in the estimates and, after due account is taken of this bias, we find that differences due to estimation method are …

This paper examines the robustness of explanatory variables in cross-country economic growth regressions. It employs a novel approach, Bayesian Averaging of Classical Estimates (BACE), which constructs estimates as a weighted average of OLS estimates for every possible combination of included...

A gravity model is used to assess the separate effects of exchange rate volatility and currency unions on international trade. The panel data set used includes bilateral observations for five years spanning 1970 through 1990 for 186 countries. In this data set, there are over one hundred...

In this paper I offer an alternative identification assumption that allows one to test for changing patterns regarding the international propagation of shocks when endogenous variables, omitted variables, and heteroskedasticity are present in the data. Using this methodology, I demonstrate that...

The use of judgmental anchors or reference points in valuing corporations affects several basic aspects of merger and acquisition activity including offer prices, deal success, market reaction, and merger waves. Offer prices are biased towards the 52-week high, a highly salient but largely...
