It is well known that the standard Breusch and Pagan (1980) LM test for cross-equation correlation in a SUR model is not appropriate for testing cross-sectional dependence in panel data models when the number of cross-sectional units (n) is large and the number of time periods (T) is small. In...

While developing a prior distribution for any Bayesian analysis, it is important to check whether the corresponding posterior distribution becomes degenerate in the limit to the true parameter value as the sample size increases. In the same vein, it is also important to understand a more...
