Instability of the Determinants of Birth Intervals in Ahvaz-Iran: A Structural Change Modelling Approach
Birth interval is one of the major determinants of the fertility rate. In this paper structural change approach is used to study the instabilities in the effects of different socio-economic factors on birth intervals of children with respect to couple's years of marriage factor in Ahvaz-Iran. A class of M-fluctuation tests for parameter instability is used and based on these tests different evi...
متن کاملModelling Spatial Heterogeneity: a Local Approach or a Global Approach?
GWR, in nature, is a local modelling approach in that it models spatial heterogeneity by sequentially fitting a series of weighted and localised regression models, centred upon each fit location. The weights are inversely proportional to the geographic distance between the fit points and the observations. SVC, on the other hand, is a global modelling approach in that it regards the spatial hete...
متن کاملAnalysing the socioeconomic determinants of hypertension in South Africa: a structural equation modelling approach
BACKGROUND Epidemiological research has long observed a varying prevalence of hypertension across socioeconomic strata. However, patterns of association and underlying causal mechanisms are poorly understood in sub-Saharan Africa. Using education and income as indicators, we investigated the extent to which socioeconomic status is linked to blood pressure in the first wave of the National Incom...
متن کاملModelling Default Risk: A New Structural Approach
This paper provides an alternative approach to the structural credit risk models. The first-passage-time approach extends the original Merton [Journal of Finance 29, 449-470] model by accounting for the fact that the default may occur not only at the debt’s maturity, but also prior to this date. Default happens when the firm value process crosses an exhaust barrier. In contrast, this paper defi...
