This paper introduces the concepts of time-specific weak and strong cross section dependence. A double-indexed process is said to be cross sectionally weakly dependent at a given point in time, t, if its weighted average along the cross section dimension (N) converges to its expectation in...

This paper uses the Italian income tax treatment of 2006/7 as a quasi-natural tax experiment to offer some fresh empirical evidence on how labour supply responds to exogenous income tax hikes. We adopt the identification strategy based on TWFE panel data Difference-in-Differences (DID) model to...

Obtaining consistent estimates of spillovers in an educational context is hampered by at least two issues: selection into peer groups and peer effects emanating from unobservable characteristics. We develop an algorithm for estimating spillovers using panel data that addresses both of these...

We study the estimation of the lag parameter of linear dynamic panel data models with first order dynamics based on the … asymptotics and mitigates the non-standard distributions found in the literature. Second, we consider an IV estimator based on the … asymptotics hold for the estimator when the cross section dimension is large and the time series dimension is finite. We also …

Statistical Analysis in surveys is often facing missing data. As case-wise deletion and single imputation prove to have undesired properties, multiple imputation remains as a measure to handle this problem. In a longitudinal study, where for some missing values past or future data points might...

In this paper we show that panel estimates of tenure specific sensitivity to the business cycle of wages is subject to serious pitfalls. Three canonical variates used in the literature - the minimum unemployment rate during a worker's time at the firm (min u), the unemployment rate at the start...

Phillips and Hansen (1990) that use a spectral [non-parametric] estimation of the residual asymptotic covariance matrix to … introduce new, compact notations for the fixed-b limits of spectral covariance estimators. This permits us to construct T …-consistent semi-parametric estimators: a simple estimator that estimates and subtracts the OLS bias, and a pseudo-exogenised estimator …

We show that the Anderson and Hsiao (1981, 1982) simple instrumental variable estimator (IV) or maximizing the … likelihood function with initial value distribution properly treated (quasi-maximum likelihood estimator) is asymptotically … asymptotically biased of order √(N/T). We also explore the source of the bias of the Arellano and Bond (1991) type GMM estimator. We …

We propose an Adjusted Quasi-Score (AQS) method for constructing tests for homoskedasticity in spatial econometric models. We first obtain an AQS function by adjusting the score-type function from the given model to achieve unbiasedness, and then develop an Outer-Product-of-Martingale-Difference...
