The present book is concerned with spatial interaction modelling. In particular, it aims to illustrate, through a collection of methodological and empirical studies, how estimation approaches in this field recently developed, by including the tools typical of spatial statistics and spatial...

This paper explores the properties of pre-test strategies in estimating a linear Cliff-Ord-type spatial model when the researcher is unsure about the nature of the spatial dependence. More specifically, the paper explores the finite sample properties of the pre-test estimators introduced in...

In this study, we propose simple test statistics for identifying the source of spatial dependence in spatial autoregressive models with endogenous weights matrices. Elements of the weights matrices are modelled in such a way that endogenity arises when the unobserved factors that affect elements...
