R&D drivers in young innovative companies
García-Quevedo, José; Pellegrino, Gabriele; … - 2011
This paper examines the determinants of young innovative companies' (YICs) R&D activities taking into account the autoregressive nature of innovation. Using a large longitudinal dataset comprising Spanish manufacturing firms over the period 1990-2008, we find that previous R&D experience is a...

Institutional determinants of new firm entry in Russia: a cross regional analysis
Bruno, Randolph Luca; Bytchkova, Maria; Estrin, Saul - 2008
We analyse a three-year panel data set of Russian firms spanning from 2000 to 2002 and we investigate the effect of regional institutional and economic factors on entry rates across time, industries and regions. The paper builds on a novel database and exploits inter-regional variation in a...

Examining the Impact of Macro-Economic Conditions on Income Inequality
Jäntti, Markus; Jenkins, Stephen P. - 2001
This paper proposes a new approach for analyzing the relationship between macroeconomic factors and the income distribution. The conventional method of analysis is regression of summary inequality indices on variables such as the unemployment and inflation rates. Building on the lessons from...

Exponent of cross-sectional dependence: Estimation and inference
Bailey, Natalia; Kapetanios, George; Pesaran, Hashem - 2012
An important issue in the analysis of cross-sectional dependence which has received renewed interest in the past few years is the need for a better understanding of the extent and nature of such cross dependencies. In this paper we focus on measures of cross-sectional dependence and how such...

Simulation and Estimation of Hedonic Models
Heckman, James Joseph; Matzkin, Rosa Liliana; Nesheim, Lars - 2003
semiparametric estimation and identification of scalar additive hedonic models (Ekeland, Heckman, and Nesheim, 2002) and scalar … provide evidence on the performance of several estimation techniques. We also simulate examples of equilibria in nonadditive … models and provide evidence on the performance of the nonadditive estimation techniques developed in Heckman, Matzkin, and …
