the research argues that the ending divine attributes of the quranic verses are related semantically to the verses’ theme. according to the content of the quranic verses, supported by some commentators, the ending divine attributes of the verses have such a deep semantic relationship with the verse content that if we abandon the ending attributes, some disorder is made in the verse theme. this ...

Causality analysis, beyond “mere” correlations, has become increasingly important for scientific discoveries and policy decisions. Many of these real-world applications involve time series data. A key observation is that the causality between time series could vary significantly over time. For example, a rain could cause severe traffic jams during the rush hours, but has little impact on the tr...

The paper examines the causal nexus between financial development and economic growth in India in a multivariate VAR model. The empirical analysis is based on cointegration and causality test. The cointegration test finds the presence of long run equilibrium relationship between financial development and economic growth. The Granger causality test finds the existence of bidirectional causality ...

Establishing a causal relationship between factors at work and disease is difficult for occupational physicians and researchers. This paper seeks to provide arguments for the judgement of evidence of causality in observational studies that relate work factors to disease. I derived criteria for the judgement of evidence of causality from the following sources: the criteria list of Hill, the appr...

This paper analyzes the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis to test the causality relationship between economic activity, trade openness and carbon dioxide emissions in Mexico (1971-2011). The results achieved in this research show that there are three long-run relationships between production, trade openness, energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. The EKC hypothesis was not ...

This paper uses panel cointegration techniques to examine the causal relationship between renewable energy consumption, economic growth and CO2 emissions for a group of 12 MENA countries covering the annual period 1975-2008. The Granger-causality results indicate that there is no causal relationship between these variables in short run except a unidirectional causality running from renewable en...

the relationship between financial development and economic growth in order to give priority to policies that will lead to financial development or addressing other economic priorities to achieve economic growth has attracted the attention of many economics. nonlinear models of causality and causal relationships between variables in the modification of variables in different regimes exist, why ...

The paper focuses on establishing causation in regression analysis in observational settings. Simple static regression analysis cannot establish causality in the absence of a priori theory on possible causal mechanisms or controlled and randomized experiments. However, two regression based econometric techniques – instrumental variables and Granger causality can be used to test for causality gi...

This study aims at investigating the nature of the causal relationship between immigration and two macroeconomic indicators, GDP per capita and unemployment, in Sweden using autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) bounds testing procedure and Granger-causality within vector error correction model (VECM) based on annual data spanning the period between 1980 and 2004. Results of the ARDL bounds tes...

This paper investigates the relationship between infrastructure investments and economic activity in Sweden for the period 1800-2000. In order to overcome the problem of endogeneity, independent time scales are used to analyze the relationship. The paper also examines the dynamics between the variables by testing for causality in the Granger sense and constructing a vector autoregressive model ...
