In missing-data analysis, Little's test (1988, Journal of the American Statistical Association 83: 1198–1202) is useful for testing the assumption of missing completely at random for multivariate, partially observed quantitative data. I introduce the mcartest command, which implements Little's...

We address the problem how to estimate default probabilities for sovereign countries based on market data of traded debt. A structural Merton-type model is applied to a sample of emerging market and transition countries. In this context, only few and heterogeneous default probabilities are...

distribution theory and local power results. The tests are (quasi-)likelihood ratio tests based on a Gaussian likelihood, but of … course the asymptotic results apply more generally. The power gains relative to existing tests are due to two factors. First … local power of the proposed tests dominates that of existing cointegration rank tests. …

This paper investigates the effects of inward FDI on per-capita income and growth of the US states since the mid-1970s. Using a Markov chain approach, it shows that both quantitative and qualitative characteristics of FDI affect per-capita income and growth. Employment-intensive FDI,...
