This paper uses Monte Carlo simulation analysis to study the finite-sample behavior of bootstrap estimators and tests … tailored to handle heteroskedasticity. Our results show that weighted bootstrap methods can be successfully used to estimate … test and of Bartlett and Edgeworth-corrected tests. The bootstrap test was found to be robust against unfavorable …

The main contribution of this paper is a proof of the asymptotic validity of the application of the bootstrap to AR … establishing that a suitably constructed bootstrap estimator will have the same limit distribution as the least-squares estimator … robust standard errors or the bootstrap approximation of the distribution of autoregressive parameters. A simulation study …

This paper tests a geography and growth model using regional data for Europe, the US, and Japan. We set up a standard geography and growth model with a poverty trap and derive a log-linearized growth equation that corresponds directly to a threshold regression technique in econometrics. In...
