Spatial allocation of capital: The role of risk preferences
Broll, Udo; Roldán-Ponce, Antonio; Wahl, Jack E. - 2010
This paper considers a model of spatial allocation of investment capital under uncertainty. We demonstrate that the spatial concentration of economic activity depends upon properties of risk preferences deeper than risk aversion. The degree of so-called relative prudence unambiguously decides...

State space mixed models for longitudinal obsservations with binary and binomial responses
Czado, Claudia; Song, Peter X.-K. - 2006
We propose a new class of state space models for longitudinal discrete response data where the observation equation is specified in an additive form involving both deterministic and random linear predictors. These models allow us to explicitly address the effects of trend, seasonal or other...

Distance matters!: Evidence from professional team sports
Oberhofer, Harald; Philippovich, Tassilo; Winner, Hannes - 2008
This paper assesses the role of distance in professional team sports, taking the example of football (soccer). We argue that a team's performance in terms of scored and conceded goals decreases with the distance to the foreign playing venue. To test this hypothesis empirically, we investigate...

Growth regressions, principal components and frequentist model averaging
Wagner, Martin; Hlouskova, Jaroslava - 2009
This paper offers two innovations for empirical growth research. First, the paper discusses principal components augmented regressions to take into account all available information in well-behaved regressions. Second, the paper proposes a frequentist model averaging framework as an alternative...

Valid inference for a class of models where standard inference performs poorly: Including nonlinear regression, ARMA, GARCH, and unobserved components
Ma, Jun; Nelson, Charles R. - 2010
the exact test of Fieller (1954) for a ratio of regression coefficients, or as an LM test in the spirit of Breusch and … Pagan (1980)., We show that this test has nearly correct size in non-linear regression, ARMA, GARCH, and Unobserved …

Extended Beta Regression in R: Shaken, Stirred, Mixed, and Partitioned
Grün, Bettina; Kosmidis, Ioannis; Zeileis, Achim - 2011
Beta regression - an increasingly popular approach for modeling rates and proportions - is extended in various … directions: (a) bias correction/reduction of the maximum likelihood estimator, (b) beta regression tree models by means of … recursive partitioning, (c) latent class beta regression by means of finite mixture models. All three extensions may be of …
