The distributed lag effect of ambient particulate air pollution that can be attributed to all cause mortality in Kathmandu valley, Nepal is estimated through generalized linear model (GLM) and generalized additive model (GAM) with autoregressive count dependent variable. Models are based upon daily time series data on mortality collected from the leading hospitals and exposure collected from th...

This article examines the determinants of health expenditures in Tunisia during the period 1961-2008, using the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach by Pesaran et al. (2001). The results of the bounds test show that there is a stable long-run relationship between per capita health expenditure, GDP, population ageing, medical density and environmental quality. In fact, on the one hand ...

This study investigates the impact of energy consumption and financial development on economic growth using neo-classical production function in the case of US. The ARDL (Autoregressive distributed lag) bounds testing approach with additional variables (energy consumption and financial development) is used to investigate cointegration during the period of 1967-2012 in US. The ARDL reveals a coi...

Across the globe, climate change is threatening environment, crop yield and food security. The key to ensuring a sustainable increase security identify long-term significant impact of means reducing effect. This study examined impacts on cassava in Nigeria. Data were sourced from Climate Change Knowledge Portal Food Agricultural Organization United Nations spanning 1990 2019. was analyzed using...

This study aims to examine the asymmetric relationship between trade openness and FDI (foreign direct investment) inflows Vietnam by using NARDL (nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag) during period from 1997 2019. Our findings show that influence of on is in short-run long-run. But symmetric long run.

In this paper we investigate natural gas producer’s reactions to changes in market prices. We estimate price elasticities of aggregated supply in the most competitive market for natural gas: the United States. Using monthly time series data form 1987 to 2012 our analysis is based on an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bound Cointegration approach to obtain short and long-run elasticities o...

The study examined the relationship between stock market performance and economic growth in Nigeria. It utilized the bounds testing co-integration procedure also known as autoregressive distributed lag estimation procedure. The empirical model combined key stock market indicators and some traditional macroeconomic variables to estimate the hypothesized relationship in the study. It found that i...
