Das Carsharing hat in den vergangenen Jahren einen großen Bedeutungsgewinn zu verzeichnen. Charakteristisch sind dabei teils große Unterschiede zwischen städtischen und ländlichen Regionen sowie auch zwischen einzelnen Städten. Der vorliegende Beitrag geht der vor allem für Deutschland...

This paper considers nonparametric identification and estimation of the regression function when a covariate is mismeasured. The measurement error need not be classical. Employing the small measurement error approximation, we establish nonparametric identification under weak and...

In this paper, I discuss three aspects of the Frisch-Waugh-Lovell theorem. First, I show that the theorem holds for linear instrumental variables estimation of a multiple regression model that is either exactly or overidentified. I show that with linear instrumental variables estimation: (a)...

The effects of newness to customer and innovation advantage on innovation success have been extensively researched from different perspectives, especially in a B2C context. However, the joint influence of these two determinants has hardly been studied. This paper uses the theoretical framework...

More and better collaboration between farmers and other stakeholders has repeatedly been identified as a key strategy for sustainable agriculture. However, for collaboration to actually benefit sustainable agriculture certain conditions have to be met. In this paper, we scrutinize the conditions...

In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden für Berliner Mietshäuser praktikable multiple Regressionsmodelle, sog. hedonische Modelle zur Wertermittlung von Mietwohnhäusern und Wohn- und Geschäftshäusern entwickelt. Die hedonische Bewertungsmethode beurteilt Objekte nach ihren intrinsischen Werten...

Microaggregation by individual ranking is one of the most commonly applied disclosure control techniques for continuous microdata. The paper studies the effect of microaggregation by individual ranking on the least squares estimation of a multiple linear regression model in continuous variables....

In this paper it is shown that the number of latent factors in a multiple multivariate regression model need not be larger than the number of the response variables in order to achieve an optimal prediction. The practical importance of this lemma is outlined and an application of such a...

According to the hypothesis of our study there is a close relationship between the standard of economic development and the scale of internal spatial disparities. Central in our applied theory is that the first phase of capitalist economic development is characterised with an initially fast and...

This study divides the households into five groups according to the electricity consumption and compares the characteristics and the determinants of household electricity consumption for only two groups, the lowest and the highest. The data are drawn from a household energy consumption sample...
