Oviedo, Jose L.; Campos, Pablo; Caparrós, Alejandro - Instituto de Políticas y Bienes Públicos (IPP), … - 2010
While applied national accounts are based on market costs and outputs, non-market valuation techniques yield estimates for consumer or Hicksian surplus. To integrate non-market values in national accounts we propose the Simulated Exchange Value method, which simulates the whole market (demand...

The copula approach of sampling selection modelling: an application to the recreational value of forests
Genius, M.; Strazzera, E. - Centro Ricerche Nord Sud (CRENoS) - 2003
The sample selection model is based upon a bivariate or a multivariate structure, and distributional assumptions are in this context more severe than in univariate settings, due to the limited availability of tractable multivariate distributions. While the standard FIML estimation of the...
