Evaluating Structural Vector Autoregression Models in Monetary Economies
This paper uses Monte Carlo simulations to evaluate alternative identi cation strategies in VAR estimation of monetary models, and to assess the accuracy of measuring money instability as a cause of output uctuations. I construct theoretical monetary economies using general equilibrium models with cash-in-advance constraints, which also include technology shocks, labor supply shocks, and monet...

متن کاملEstimation of a Structural Vector Autoregression Model Using Non-Gaussianity
Analysis of causal effects between continuous-valued variables typically uses either autoregressive models or structural equation models with instantaneous effects. Estimation of Gaussian, linear structural equation models poses serious identifiability problems, which is why it was recently proposed to use non-Gaussian models. Here, we show how to combine the non-Gaussian instantaneous model wi...
متن کاملChild Mortality in Eastern and Southern Africa
High rates of infant mortality in Africa continue to be a major public health concern today, despite the fact that most deaths can be prevented from well known, relatively low cost technologies. Using multiple years of DHS from four countries, we estimate the change in the relative risk of death as well as the main contributions to the change in mortality over time. We find significant declines...
