Unequal spacing in dynamic panel data: Identification and estimation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose conditions under which parameters of fixed-effect dynamic models are identified with unequally spaced panel data. Under predeterminedness, weak stationarity, and empirically testable rank conditions, AR(1) parameters are identified given the availability of ‘‘two pairs of two consecutive time gaps’’, which generalizes ‘‘two pairs of two consecutive time periods’’. This result extends to models with multiple covariates, higher-order autoregressions, and partial linearity. Applying our method to the NLS Original Cohorts: Older Men, where personal interviews took place in 1966, 67, and 69, we analyze the earnings dynamics in the old time, and compare the results with more recent ones. © 2016 Elsevier B.V.

The Effect of Corruption on Shadow Economy: An Empirical Analysis Based on Panel Data
Quite often shadow economy (SE) and corruption are seen as "twins", which need each other or fight against each other and theoretically can be either complements or substitutes. Therefore, the relationship between SE and corruption has been a controversial and polemical issue and in the spotlight of a remarkable collection of economists and social researchers. The main objective of this study ...
متن کاملBayesian Quantile Regression with Adaptive Lasso Penalty for Dynamic Panel Data
Dynamic panel data models include the important part of medicine, social and economic studies. Existence of the lagged dependent variable as an explanatory variable is a sensible trait of these models. The estimation problem of these models arises from the correlation between the lagged depended variable and the current disturbance. Recently, quantile regression to analyze dynamic pa...
متن کاملOil, Government’s Budget and Economic Growth: A Dynamic Panel Data Model for Selected Oil Exporting Economies
Recognition of economic growth determinants is one of the most important concerns for economists. In the oil exporting countries oil revenues play a significant role for the economy alongside with other economic growth determinants. This paper attempts to investigate the role of oil in selected oil-revenue dependent economies. Since oil revenue goes directly to public treasury and is expended b...

In the present study, Adaptive Neuro–Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) approach was applied for predicting the heat transfer and air flow pressure drop on flat and discontinuous fins. The heat transfer and friction characteristics were experimentally investigated in four flat and discontinuous fins with different geometric parameters including; fin length (r), fin interruption (s), fin pitch (p), ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Tax Complexity on Economic Growth: A Dynamic Panel Data Model for Selected Developed Countries
One of the most important concerns of economists is identification of the economic growth determinants. Meanwhile, institutional factors are of important ones. This paper aims to empirically investigate the effect of tax complexity, as a determinant institutional factor of economic growth in 42 relatively developed economies during 2008-2016. The tax complexity variables include: the time spent...
