Variable Selection and Functional Form Uncertainty in Cross-Country Growth Regressions
Salimans, Tim - 2011
Regression analyses of cross-country economic growth data are complicated by two main forms of model uncertainty: the uncertainty in selecting explanatory variables and the uncertainty in specifying the functional form of the regression function. Most discussions in the literature address these...
