Lorsque le question de valorisation utilisee dans la methode d'evaluation contingente prend la forme d'une question fermee, le modele econometrique adequat est un modele a choix binaire. Dans cet article, nous presentons un modele a choix binaire tenant compte d'une heterogeneite par groupes de...

In this paper we are interested in inference based on heteroskedasticity consistent covariance matrix estimators, for which the appropriate bootstrap is a version of the wild bootstrap. Simulation results, obtained by a new very efficient methos, show that all wild bootstraps tests exhibit...

Dans la pratique, la plupart des statistiques de test ont une distribution de probabilite de forme inconnue. Generalement, on utilise leur loi asymptotique comme approximation de la vraie loi. Mais, si l'echelon dont on dispose n'est pas de taille suffisante cette approximation peut etre de...

This paper proposes a new kind of asymmetric GARCh where the conditional variance obeys two different regimes with a smooth transition function. In one formulation variance reacts differently to negative and positive shocks while a second formulation, small and big shocks have separate effects.

This paper develops a dynamic model wherin production generates pollution that is viewed as a public bad by consumers. There are two types of consumers: those who are altruist a la Barro-Becker and leave bequests to their children and those who are pure life-cyclers. Both types of consumers...
