Measuring and Decomposing Productivity Change: Stochastic Distance Function Estimation VS. DEA.

Lastrapes, W.D. - Terry College of Business, University of Georgia - 2000

Linear programming techniques have been widely used to compute Malmquist indices of productivity change as ratios of fitted distances from a convex hull frontier. These indices are then decomposed into technical and efficiency change. However, since this approach is non-stochastic, inference is...

Real Wages and Aggregate Demand Shocks: Contradictory Evidence from Vars.

Lastrapes, W.D. - Terry College of Business, University of Georgia - 2000

This paper revisits two recently published estimates (in Gamber and Joutz 1993, and Spencer 1998) of the dynamic effects of aggregate demand shocks on real wages. Despite identical data and similar reliance on long-run restrictions to identify the economic structure of a VAR model of real wages,...

Lastrapes, W.D. - Terry College of Business, University of Georgia - 2000

I estimate the dynamic responses of owner-occupied housing prices to money supply shocks, and compare these responses to those predicted by a dynamic equilibrium model of the housing market. The empirical responses are identified from general sets of restrictions that are consistent with a wide...

On Omitted Variables Bias and Measurement Error in Returns to Schooling Estimates

Mellander, E. - Institutet för Näringslivsforskning (IFN) - 1998

Lam and Schoeni (1993) consider an equation where earnings are explained by schooling and ability. They assume that ability data are lacking and that schooling is measured with error. The estimate obtained by regressing earnings on schooling thus contains omitted variable bias (OVB), which is...
