Weak consistent moving block bootstrap estimator for the variance of CLS estimators in a class of bilinear models
(2008)Grahn (1995) introduced the Conditional Least Squares estimators for the class (I) of bilinear models. These estimators have a variance which is difficulty to derive analytically. In this paper we derive the conditions for ... -
Soddisfazione ed insoddisfazione nel lavoro. Determinanti individuali dell'insoddisfazione lavorativa e analisi dei fattori di disagio. Un'analisi del caso del Trivento
(2008)Questo lavoro d’analisi nasce da un’elaborazione tratta da una recente e rilevante ricerca sul lavoro in Italia. Rispetto al campione nazionale sono stati da noi analizzati i dati relativi al sottocampione del Triveneto. ... -
Youth poverty after leaving parental home: does parental income matter?
(2007)Researchers have now started to look at youth poverty as distinct from child poverty. However none has focused on the intergenerational transmission of youth poverty in European countries. Using four countries for which there ... -
Well-posedness, a short survey
(2007)In this paper we analyze the property of Tykhonov wellposedness in relation to other well-posedness properties which are ordinal and, as stated in the title, we give a survey on some important results on well-posedness ... -
Estimating capability as a latent variable: a latent variable a multiple causes approach - the example of health
(2007)Following Sen’s approach to poverty, the ‘real’ poor are those who did not have the choice not to be poor. In other words, poor is an individual who did not have the capability (i.e. the possibility, the ability) to have ... -
No Euro Please, We're British
(2007)Comparing the economic performances between UK and Euroland, the appropriate and obvious question should be: why does not Euroland replace its euro with the British pound? However, economy does not represent all the interests ... -
Variable selection in forecasting models for corporate bankruptcy
(2011)In this paper we develop statistical models for bankruptcy prediction of Italian firms in the limited liability sector, using annual balance sheet information. Several issues involved in default risk analysis are investigated, ... -
Harmful competition in the insurance markets
(2010)There is a general presumption that competition is a good thing. In this paper we show that competition in the insurance markets can be bad and that adverse selection is in general worse under competition than under monopoly. ... -
On the FDI: attracting property of privatization
(2010)In the present paper we provide an explanation of why privatization may attract foreign investors willing to enter a regional market. Privatization turns the formerly-public rm into a less aggressive competitor since pro ... -
The effects of fiscal shocks in svar models: a graphical modelling approach
(2010)We apply graphical modelling theory to identify scal policy shocks in SVAR models of the US economy. Unlike other econometric ap- proaches which achieve identi cation by relying on potentially con- tentious a priori ... -
A note on the invertibility of the threshold moving average model
(2010)The Threshold Moving Average model with k regimes of order q is examined. In particular we provide sufficient conditions for its invertibility by generalizing some results reported in the literature. In the first part of ... -
A locally adaptive bandwidth selector for kernel based regression
(2009)The selection of the smoothing parameter represents a crucial step in the local polynomial regression, because of the implications on the consistency of the nonparametric regression estimator and because of the difficulties ...
