The analysis of short longitudinal series of circular data may be problematic and to some extent has not been fully developed. A Bayesian analysis of a new model for such data is presented. The model is based on a radial projection onto the circle of a particular bivariate normal distribution....

This paper proposes a Bayesian approach to estimate a factor augmented productivity equation. We exploit the panel dimension of our data and distinguish individual-specific and time-specific factors. On the basis of 21 technology, infrastructure and institution indicators from 82 countries over...

We get the estimator of the link function, establish the asymptotic properties, and construct the simultaneous confidence band for single-index random effects models. Simulation studies and real data set are presented to evaluate the performance of the proposed method.

This paper considers the issue of performing testing inference in fixed effects panel data models under heteroskedasticity of unknown form. We use numerical integration to compute the exact null distributions of different quasi-t test statistics and compare them to their limiting counterpart....
