This paper proposes the GMM estimation of the spatial dynamic panel data model with …xed e¤ects when n is large, and T can be large, but small relative to n. By eliminating …xed e¤ects to begin with, we investigate asymptotic properties of the estimators, where exogenous and predetermined variables are used as instruments. For the spatial dynamic panel data model, as compared with the dynamic p...

In the presence of selection bias the traditional estimators for pseudo panel data models are inconsistent. This paper discusses a method to achieve consistency in static linear pseudo panels in the presence of selection bias and a testing procedure for sample selection bias. The authors’ approach uses a bias correction term proportional to the inverse Mills ratio with argument equal to the “no...

Blood-feeding Glossina palpalis gambiense (Gpg) fly transmits the single-celled eukaryotic parasite Trypanosoma brucei gambiense (Tbg), the second Glossina fly African trypanosome pair being Glossina morsitans/T.brucei rhodesiense. Whatever the T. brucei subspecies, whereas the onset of their developmental program in the zoo-anthropophilic blood feeding flies does unfold in the fly midgut, its ...

The long term consequences of malnutrition during childhood are well established in the literature. Yet, little is known about the extent to which individuals are able to recover from some of the deficits in health outcomes caused by childhood malnutrition. In order to address this question, I construct a panel data for children between 3-59 months in 1993 and follow them through 1997 and 2000 ...

This paper extends the transformed maximum likelihood approach for estimation of dynamic panel data models by Hsiao, Pesaran, and Tahmiscioglu (2002) to the case where the errors are cross-sectionally heteroskedastic. This extension is not trivial due to the incidental parameters problem and its implications for estimation and inference. We approach the problem by working with a mis-speci…ed ho...

E-commerce plays a crucial role in the digital economy. can reduce costs and boost economic growth. Therefore, global rate of is increasing very fast, which has implications for This study analyses impact e-commerce on environmental sustainability. The empirical analysis employed OLS, 2SLS, GMM, panel quantile regression methods using data 10 European economies spanning over 2002–2019. Carbon e...

This paper focuses on two major aspects of globalization: international trade and FDI and their impacts on manufacturing employment in Iran and study whether foreign direct investment and trade expansion with Asian and European partner played any role in shaping the Iranian manufacturing employment structure. This study incorporates globalization (KOF index), trade integration and FDI into a si...

This paper examines the impact of globalization on income inequality in a panel of 78 developed and developing countries over 2002–2015. Moreover, the indirect effect of financial development in the link between globalization and income inequality is also analyzed by incorporating the interaction term between globalization and financial development. The empirical evidence based on the first-dif...
