Recent approaches to development accounting reflect substantial model uncertainty at both the instrument and the development determinant level. Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA) has been proven useful in resolving model uncertainty in economics, and we extend BMA to formally account for model...

Uncertainty about the choice of identifying assumptions is common in causal studies, but is often ignored in empirical practice. This paper considers uncertainty over models that impose different identifying assumptions, which, in general, leads to a mix of point- and set-identified models. We...

We have argued that from the standpoint of a policy maker, the uncertainty of using the average forecast is not the variance of the average, but rather the average of the variances of the individual forecasts that incorporate idiosyncratic risks. With a slight reformulation of the loss function...
