We provide a unified framework for analyzing bootstrapped extremum estimators of nonlinear dynamic models for heterogeneous dependent stochastic processes. We apply our results to the moving blocks bootstrap of Kunsch (1989) and Liu and Singh (1992) and prove the first order asymptotic validity...

The preliminary test ridge regression estimators (P T R R E) based on the Wald (W), Likelihood Ratio (L R) and Lagrangian Multiplier (L M) tests for estimating the regression parameters has been considered in this paper. Here we consider the multiple regression model with student t error...

Research was conducted to find out the effects of exchange rate variability, terms of trade, competitiveness and gross domestic product on the dominant export crop of Ethiopia, coffee. This study employs annual time series data (1992–2010) and uses the autoregressive distributive lag...

In this paper, we study functional regression and its properties in testing the hypothesis of a constant zero mean function or an unknown constant non-zero mean function. As we show, the associated Wald test statistics have standard chi-square limiting null distributions, standard non-central...

This paper combines the idea of preliminary test and ridge regression methodology, when it is suspected that the regression coefficients may be restricted to a subspace. The preliminary test ridge regression estimators (PTRRE) based on the Wald (W), Likelihood Ratio (LR) and Lagrangian...

A number of indices of economic inequality have been proposed in the literature. Their constructions are based on various econometric motives and justifications such as axioms of fairness. In this paper we analize the indices stepping slightly aside from their econometric meanings and adopting a...

Este documento presenta una breve introducción al paquete econométrico gratuito EasyReg. Se discute cómo se cargan los datos y cómo se transforman. Así mismo, se muestra paso a paso como calcular las estadísticas descriptivas y estimar un modelo de regresión múltiple. Finalmente, se...

The study performed an in-depth examination of the impact of guaranteed agricultural finance to oil palm, cocoa, groundnuts, fishery, poultry, cattle, roots, and tubers on the real gross domestic product of the country. Time series data was sourced from the Central Bank of Nigeria statistical...
