Diagnostic Tests of Cross Section Independence for Nonlinear Panel Data Models

Hsiao, Cheng; Pesaran, M. Hashem; Pick, Andreas - 2014

In this paper we discuss tests for residual cross section dependence in nonlinear panel data models. The tests are …

Testing Weak Cross-Sectional Dependence in Large Panels

Pesaran, M. Hashem - 2012

This paper considers testing the hypothesis that errors in a panel data model are weakly cross sectionally dependent … the range [0, 1/4], for all combinations of N and T, and irrespective of whether the panel contains lagged values of the …

Panels with Nonstationary Multifactor Error Structures

Kapetanios, George; Pesaran, M. Hashem; Yamagata, Takashi - 2021

The presence of cross-sectionally correlated error terms invalidates much inferential theory of panel data models … for stationary panel regressions with multifactor error structure. This paper extends this work and examines the important …

Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Lagrange Multiplier Tests for Panel Seemingly Unrelated Regressions with Spatial Lag and Spatial Errors : An Application to Hedonic Housing Prices...

Baltagi, Badi H. - 2010

This paper proposes maximum likelihood estimators for panel seemingly unrelated regressions with both spatial lag and … spatial lag dependent variable and where the heterogeneity in the panel is incorporated via an error component specification … spatial autocorrelation and random effects for this spatial SUR panel model. The small sample performance of the proposed …

Rationalizing Rational Expectations? Tests and Deviations

D'Haultfœuille, Xavier - 2018

In this paper, we build a new test of rational expectations based on the marginal distributions of realizations and subjective beliefs. This test is widely applicable, including in the common situation where realizations and beliefs are observed in two different datasets that cannot be matched....

Testing for IIA with the Hausman-Mcfadden Test

Vijverberg, Wim P. M. - 2011

The Independence of Irrelevant Alternatives assumption inherent in multinomial logit models is most frequently tested with a Hausman-McFadden test. As is confirmed by many findings in the literature, this test sometimes produces negative outcomes, in contradiction of its asymptotic χ²...

Testing CAPM with a Large Number of Assets

Pesaran, M. Hashem - 2012

This paper is concerned with testing the time series implications of the capital asset pricing model (CAPM) due to Sharpe (1964) and Lintner (1965), when the number of securities, N, is large relative to the time dimension, T, of the return series. In the case of cross-sectionally correlated...

Misspecification Testing in a Class of Conditional Distributional Models

Rothe, Christoph - 2012

We propose a specification test for a wide range of parametric models for the conditional distribution function of an outcome variable given a vector of covariates. The test is based on the Cramer-von Mises distance between an unrestricted estimate of the joint distribution function of the data,...

Testing for Restricted Stochastic Dominance

Davidson, Russell; Duclos, Jean-Yves - 2006

Asymptotic and bootstrap tests are studied for testing whether there is a relation of stochastic dominance between two distributions. These tests have a null hypothesis of nondominance, with the advantage that, if this null is rejected, then all that is left is dominance. This also leads us to...

Inequality Indices as Tests of Fairness

Kanbur, Ravi - 2017

Standard income inequality indices can be interpreted as a measure of welfare loss entailed in departures from equality of outcomes, for egalitarian social welfare functions defined on the distribution of outcomes. But such a welfare interpretation has been criticized for a long time on the...
