The techniques of simple random sampling are seldom appropriate in the empirical analysis of income distributions. Various types of weighting schemes are usually required either from the point of view of welfare-economic considerations (the mapping of household/family distributions into...

This paper discusses the dual interpretation of the Jeffreys–Lindley’s paradox associated with Bayesian posterior probabilities and Bayes factors, both as a differentiation between frequentist and Bayesian statistics and as a pointer to the difficulty of using improper priors while testing....

This paper provides an overview of the panel VAR models used in macroeconomics and finance. It discusses what are their distinctive features, what they are used for, and how they can be derived from economic theory. It also describes how they are estimated and how shock identification is...

This paper considers inference and model diagnostics for log-linearized DSGE models allow- ing an unknown subset of … inference, we first characterize weak identi?cation from a frequency domain perspective and propose a score test for the … surfaces as (imperfectly) multicollinear regressors. Then, we prove that asymptotically valid inference can be carried out by …

The increasing demand of relevant, viable, coherent data users, in useful time, to early detec economic vulnerabilities and turnpoints in business cycles, especially during the economical and financial crisis, demands a prompt, coordinated response by statistical institutions. High quality short...
