Linear panel models and the "event-study plots" that often accompany them are popular tools for learning about policy effects. In this paper, we introduce the "xtevent" package for Stata, which enables the construction of event-study plots following the suggestions in Freyaldenhoven et al....

Amid a shifting global energy landscape driven by concerns about climate change and fossil fuel depletion, there is a heightened need to move toward sustainable energy sources. Although there has been a significant increase in investments in renewable energy (RE) globally, there is still a...

This paper introduces a panel GMM framework for identifying and estimating demand elasticities via heteroscedasticity. While existing panel estimators address the simultaneity problem, the state-ofthe-art Feenstra/Soderbery (F/S) estimator suffers from inconsistency, inefficiency, and lacks a...

Purpose: The symmetric relationship between interest rates and economic growth had been explored in many em-pirical studies using various econometric techniques. However, the asymmetric relationship between them was still limited because it had not been thoroughly examined. This paper sheds...

Purpose: The paper aims to identify the factors that impact the budget revenues of countries in ASEAN economies. Design/methodology/approach: The paper applies fixed effect and random effect models on a 25-year database of ASEAN economies from 1991 to 2020. Findings: The research reveals that...

The decoupling of energy-related carbon emissions from economic growth has been mostly driven by reductions of the energy intensity of GDP, which can be attributed either to changes in countries' economic structure or within-sector energy-efficiency improvements. One question is whether observed...

This paper examines the impact of current account balances on energy, headline, and core inflation across developed and developing economies from 1980 to 2023. Using Panel OLS fixed effects, Panel-IV 2SLS and Panel Vector Autoregressive models, we find that an improvement in the current account...

This paper studies the long-term consequences of unemployment on different dimensions of social exclusion. Based on longitudinal linked survey and administrative data from Germany and an event study analysis combined with inverse propensity score weighting, I document that becoming unemployed...
