This paper analyzes the endogeneity bias problem caused by associations of members within a network when the spatial autoregressive (SAR) model is used to study social... -
A Silver Lifeboat, not Silver Fetters: Why and how the Silver Standard Insula...
We use counterfactual simulations based on an estimated dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model to demonstrate why China was affected less than other major countries during... -
An Empirical Test of Pricing Kernel Monotonicity (replication data)
A large class of asset pricing models predicts that securities which have high payoffs when market returns are low tend to be more valuable than those with high payoffs when... -
Identifying the Independent Sources of Consumption Variation (replication data)
By representing a system of budget shares as an approximate factor model we determine its rank, i.e.?the number of common functional forms or factors, and we estimate a base of... -
Bayesian Graphical Models for STructural Vector Autoregressive Processes (rep...
This paper proposes a Bayesian, graph-based approach to identification in vector autoregressive (VAR) models. In our Bayesian graphical VAR (BGVAR) model, the contemporaneous... -
Finding Sensitivity to Scope in Nonmarket Valuation (replication data)
Data limitations frequently prevent using actual consumer behavior in determining natural resource values, so stated preference methods are used. Whether value estimates show... -
Cost and Preference Heterogeneity in Risky Financial Markets (replication data)
This paper estimates the magnitude of participation costs and preference parameters exploiting information on households? participation decisions in the equities market. A... -
DSGE Models in the Frequency Domains (replication data)
We use frequency domain techniques to estimate a medium-scale dynamic stochastic general equilibrium (DSGE) model on different frequency bands. We show that goodness of fit,... -
Monetary Policy and the Housing Market: A Structural Factor Analysis (replica...
This paper studies the role of the Federal Reserve's policy in the recent boom and bust of the housing market, and in the ensuing recession. By estimating a structural dynamic... -
Do High-Frequency Data Improve High-Dimensional Portfolio Allocations? (repli...
This paper addresses the debate about the usefulness of high-frequency (HF) data in large-scale portfolio allocation. We construct global minimum variance portfolios based on... -

This article evaluates an expansion of employer-mandated sick leave from 80% to 100% of forgone gross wages in Germany. We employ and compare parametric difference-in-difference... -
HOW SENSITIVE ARE RETIREMENT DECISIONS TO FINANCIAL INCENTIVES? A STATED PREF...
We study the effects of financial incentives on retirement decisions using stated preference data. Dutch survey respondents were given hypothetical retirement scenarios... -
ENJOYING THE QUIET LIFE UNDER DEREGULATION? NOT QUITE (replication data)
Most empirical studies in the banking literature assume that the alternative profit function is linearly homogeneous in input prices. We show that such an assumption is... -

IDENTIFYING THE RESPONSE OF FERTILITY TO FINANCIAL INCENTIVES (replication data)
While using financial incentives to increase fertility has become relatively common, the effects of such policies are difficult to assess. We propose an identification strategy...
