This publication's aim is to celebrate the 100th issue of Statistics in Transition new series and the 30th anniversary of the launch of the journal. The book features several 'special issues' of Statistics in Transition new series focusing on specific topics of current research interest released...

The lack of a workable and accurate national sampling frame is one of the methodological constraints in conducting representative national surveys. It undermines policy and research efforts in many developing countries, particularly those experiencing significant internal displacement and...

Sample selection is pervasive in applied economic studies. This paper develops semiparametric selection models that achieve point identification without relying on exclusion restrictions, an assumption long believed necessary for identification in semiparametric selection models. Our...

Purpose - The authors' conclusions are based on mathematical derivations that are supported by computer simulations and three worked examples in applications of economics and finance. Finally, the authors provide a link to a computer program so that researchers can perform the analyses easily....

This paper introduces a novel multivariate composite estimator for the Labour Force Survey (LFS). Unlike the univariate composite estimators used in some countries, the multivariate estimator takes into account the different probabilities of transitioning between labour market categories, such...

We propose an observation-driven dynamic common factor model for missing value imputation in high-dimensional panel data. The model exploits both serial and cross-sectional information in the data and can easily cope with time-variation in conditional means and variances, as well as with either...
