This paper focuses on the application of modern econometric techniques to a model of the demand for private housing in Ireland. The paper will firstly outline the theoretical econometric framework in order to explain the concept of cointegration within an economic model framework. The Johansen method for analyzing economic models is demonstrated and it is shown how the method can be applied to ...

Accepted 6 May 1997 Summary The British Geriatrics Society has described 16 training objectives for senior house officers (SHOs) in geriatric medicine. We have developed these into an audit standard, and in a controlled trial we consider the effectiveness of audit as a means of monitoring and improving SHO training. SHOs from three hospitals were sent a questionnaire asking about the adequacy o...

Patients with unaidable sensorineural hearing loss in one ear and normal hearing in the opposite ear can present a challenge to audiologists. At least two recommendations may be available. One approach is to attempt to minimize the communication problems associated with unilateral hearing loss by recommending preferential seating or counseling the patient to place the normal ear so it faces the...

We re-examine Sephton and Larsen's (1991) conclusion that cointegration-based tests for market efficiency suffer from temporal instability. We improve upon their research by i) including a drift term in the vector error correction model (VECM) in the Johansen procedure, ii) correcting the likelihood ratio test statistic for finitesample bias, and iii) fitting the model over longer data sets. We...

Despite the volumes written on the failure of empirical exchange rate models, there is a key feature of the record that is much overlooked, namely there are some subperiods of floating rates during which macroeconomic models provide reasonable explanations of monthly or quarterly exchange rate movements and other subperiods during which the explanatory power of these models completely disappear...

K. R. Paap and L. S. Johansen (1994) proposed that word frequency effects do not occur on a lexical decision task (LDT) when postmasked target exposure duration is sufficiently brief because such a task prevents verification--their hypothesized locus of the word frequency effect. In making this assertion, they proposed that the activation interpretation of A. R. Dobbs, A. Friedman, and J. Lloyd...
