We show that the use of prior information derived from former empirical findings and/or subject matter theory regarding the lag structure of the observable variables together with an AR process for the error terms can produce univariate and single equation models that are intuitively appealing,...

This paper considers the choice of scalars characterizing the double k-class estimators of the coefficients in a linear regression model. We demonstrate the existence of a double k-class estimator that dominates the least squares and Stein-rule estimators and we give feasible values for the...
