Cross-sectional Dependence in Panel Data Analysis
Sarafidis, Vasilis; Wansbeek, Tom - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010
This paper provides an overview of the existing literature on panel data models with error cross-sectional dependence. We distinguish between spatial dependence and factor structure dependence and we analyse the implications of weak and strong cross-sectional dependence on the properties of the...

Financial Crises and Bilateral Foreign Direct Investment Flows
Abdelaal Mahmoud, Ashraf - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2011
Despite impressive studies on financial crises consequences and foreign capital flows, by large the research done has examined these economic phenomenons separately without addressing their nexus. This paper aims at bridging this gap by examining the impact of financial crises on bilateral...

Integrating spatial dependence into stochastic frontier analysis
Areal, Francisco J; Balcombe, Kelvin; Tiffin, R - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010
An approach to incorporate spatial dependence into Stochastic Frontier analysis is developed and applied to a sample of 215 dairy farms in England and Wales. A number of alternative specifications for the spatial weight matrix are used to analyse the effect of these on the estimation of spatial...

GMM Estimation of Short Dynamic Panel Data Models With Error Cross-Sectional Dependence
Sarafidis, Vasilis - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009
This paper considers the issue of GMM estimation of a short dynamic panel data model when the errors are correlated across individuals. We focus particularly on the conditions required in the cross-sectional dimension of the error process for the dynamic panel GMM estimator to remain consistent....

Spatial Analysis of Income Growth in the Philippines: Evidence from Intra-Country Data (1988 to 2009)
Mapa, Dennis; Albis, Manuel Leonard; Comandante, Dorcas Mae - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2013
This paper looks at the spatial relationship of the average per capita income growth using intra-country or provincial data from 1988 to 2009. The results from the study provide insights on the geographical dimensions of provincial income growth and showed evidence on the role of spatial effects...

A Non-Parametric Approach to Spatial Causality
Herrera Gómez, Marcos; Ruiz Marín, Manuel; Mur … - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2010
The purpose of this paper is to show the capacity of a new non-parametric test based on symbolic entropy and symbolic dynamics to deal with the detection of linear and non-linear spatial causality. The good performance of the new test in detecting spatial causality and causal weighting matrix is...

Foreign direct investment in provinces: A spatial regression approach to FDI in Vietnam
Esiyok, Bulent; Ugur, Mehmet - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2011
Foreign direct investment (FDI) flows into Vietnam have increased significantly in recent years, with unequal distribution between provinces and regions. We aim to contribute to the literature on locational determinants of FDI by accounting for spatial interdependence between 62 Vietnamese...

Institutions-growth spatial dependence: An empirical test
Ahmad, Mahyudin; Hall, Stephen G. - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2012
Do institutions spatially affect growth? By employing a neoclassical growth model with institutional controls and augmenting the model with a formal spatial framework, this study finds evidence that institutions has spatial spillover effect on economic growth based on a panel observation from 58...
