The microdata of surveys are valuable resources for analyzing and modeling relationships between variables of interest. These microdata are often incomplete because of nonresponses in surveys and, if not considered, may lead to model misspecification and biased results. Nonresponse variable is...

The generalized asymmetric Laplace (GAL) distribution, also known as the variance/mean-gamma model, is a popular flexible class of distributions that can account for peakedness, skewness, and heavier than normal tails, often observed in financial or other empirical data. We consider extensions...

This paper proposes new cointegration tests based on instrumental variable (IV) estimation. An important property of our tests is that the asymptotic distribution remains standard normal (or Chi-square) regardless of the number of regressors, differing deterministic terms, structural dummies,...
