A Direct Monte Carlo (DMC) approach is introduced for posterior simulation in the Instrumental Variables (IV) model with one possibly endogenous regressor, multiple instruments and Gaussian errors under a flat prior. This DMC method can also be applied in an IV model (with one or multiple...

This paper focuses on the trade-off between formal care and informal care for disabled elderly people living in the community. We propose a simple microeconomic model which describes the simultaneous decision process between potential informal caregivers and disabled elderly person living at...

Considering as a starting point certain advantages and limits of the VAR model, we propose an opening to include some approaches suggested particularly by economic theory, such as economic policy role and that concerning corrections applied to restore an equilibrium state or a forecast error. In...
