Recent research in international economics highlights the role of interdependencies of investment decisions and sales of multinational firms. Previous work focused on and provided evidence for aggregate flows or stocks of foreign direct investment, showing that interdependence declines in...

We describe the spreg command, which implements a maximum likelihood estimator and a generalized spatial two-stage least-squares estimator for the parameters of a linear cross-sectional spatial-autoregressive model with spatial-autoregressive disturbances. Copyright 2013 by StataCorp LP.

We describe the spivreg command, which estimates the parameters of linear cross-sectional spatial-autoregressive models with spatial-autoregressive disturbances, where the model may also contain additional endogenous variables as well as exogenous variables. spivreg uses results and the...

In this paper we propose a general framework to deal with the presence of covariate mea-surement error in endogenous stratifield samples. Using Chesher?s (2000) methodology, we develop approximately consistent estimators for the parameters of the structural model, in the sense that their...

In this paper we propose a general framework to deal with datasets where a binary outcome is subject to misclassification and, for some sampling units, neither the error-prone variable of interest nor the covariates are recorded. A model to describe the observed data is for-malized and eficient...

Missing values are endemic in the data sets available to econometricians. This paper suggests a unified likelihood-based approach to deal with several nonignorable missing data problems for discrete choice models. Our concern is when either the dependent variable is unobserved or situations when...
