Capital-Energy Substitution and Shifts in Factor Demand: A Meta-Analysis

Koetse, Mark J.; Groot, Henri L.F. de; Florax, Raymond … - Tinbergen Institute - 2006

This paper presents results of a meta-regression analysis on empirical estimates of capital-energy substitution. Theoretically it is clear that a distinction should be made between Morishima substitution elasticities and cross-price elasticities. The former represent purely technical...

The Impact of Effect Size Heterogeneity on Meta-Analysis: A Monte Carlo Experiment

Koetse, Mark J.; Florax, Raymond J.G.M.; Groot, Henri … - Tinbergen Institute - 2007

In this paper we use Monte Carlo simulation to investigate the impact of effect size heterogeneity on the results of a meta-analysis. Specifically, we address the small sample behaviour of the OLS, the fixed effects regression and the mixed effects meta-estimators under three alternative...
