This paper uses Hierarchical Bayes Models to model and estimate spatial health effects in Germany. We combine rich … individual-level household panel data from the German SOEP with administrative county-level data to estimate spatial county …-level health dependencies. As dependent variable we use the generic, continuous, and quasi-objective SF12 health measure. We find …
