Este artículo estudia la desigualdad regional en la formación académica de los profesores de enseñanza media y secundaria en Colombia. Para ello se descomponen las desigualdades en la dotación de profesores por grado de profesionalización usando índices de Theil, y se estiman los determinantes de la...

A general framework is given to analyze the falsifiability of economic models based on a sample of their observable components. It is shown that, when the restrictions implied by the economic theory are insufficient to identify the unknown quantities of the structure, the duality of optimal transpor...

<p class="TTPAbstract">Currently, the Thailand government is promoting biofuel, especially the producer of biodiesel. Starting from 2015, the Ministry of Energy of Thailand has determined that the palm oil remaining from domestic consumption is 14 million liters per day in 2036. Forecasting biodiese...

The new governance of official statistics which was recently established in France is a significant progress. In line with international standards, it represents a useful complement to the ethical tradition of French statisticians. In order to restore the necessary trust in official statistics, it w...

We propose an easily implementable test of the validity of a set of theoretical restrictions on the relationship between economic variables, which do not necessarily identify the data generating process. The restrictions can be derived from any model of interactions, allowing censoring and multiple...

International audience In this article we follow, over his long career, the evolution of the reflections of Edmond Malinvaud on economic “science” and its relationship with the “problem” of statistical induction. To do so we largely rely on his own words by quoting his many articles addressing these...

‘titrebSummary’/titrebCet article shows that Gini’s multidimensional indicator is more comprehensive than its one-dimensional form to measure the contribution of each group to total inequality. In Languedoc-Roussillon, he pointed out that disparities were mainly driven by wage differences between de...

International audience Although linearly interpolated series are often used in economics, little has been done to examine the effects of interpolation on time series properties and on statistical inference. We show that linear interpolation of a trend stationary series superimposes a 'periodic' stru...

RESUMEN Los procesos migratorios incorporan diferentes estrategias que modifican las probabilidades de una nueva emigración. La existencia de una red de apoyo en muchos casos de familiares, funciona como un mecanismo de promoción de la migración. El objetivo de este estudio, es detallar cuáles event...

, and/or. The process of reducing fertility is a modern phenomenon in society. Since there are different conceptions based on the theory of demographic transition, and since there are different concepts based on the theory of demographic transition, they are traditionally based on an economic vision...

<p>This paper aims at modeling and analyzing the short and long run effects of export diversification on economic growth using the countries Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) panel data for the period 1992–2017. The paper introduces the panel Auto Regressive Distributed Lag/ Pooled Mean Group (ARDL/PMG...

In the paper4 we study creative capacity of 28 European countries in the period 2005–2014. We construct a creativity index based on the 3Ts concept of talent, technology and tolerance as the key components of the creativity. Our index is measured and calculated with both the cross-section and the ti...

<p>This study examines the short-run and long-run relationships between economic growth, carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions and energy consumption within a sample period of 1990-2016. The study used Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach to test the cointegration relationship and Gran...

<p>The purpose of this paper was to economically analyze and examine the causal relationship between food import bill and certain economic indicators in Oman during the period 1980–2019. The vector error correction model was used to assess the dynamics of food import bill. The finding indicates that...

<p>This study will measure and compare the efficiency of Conventional and Islamic banks in Indonesia using parametric approach stochastic frontier approach (SFA) and distribution free approach (DFA). These measurements will provide comprehensive and robust results of efficiency of individual bank co...

<p>Changes in global development benchmarks, the gradual depletion of natural resources, as well as global climatic changes are forcing economic actors around the world to look for alternative methods of energy production. The transition to them can be difficult due to the high cost of the produced...

Summary is used using the technique of main components and some variables obtained from the municipal annexes of the National Agricultural Census of 2014 to construct an agricultural index for each municipality of Antiofia, Colombia. This index gives a score showing the relative position of each one...

International audience The standard forms of bootstrap iteration are very computationally demanding. As a result, there have been several attempts to alleviate the computational burden by use of approximations. In this paper, we extend the fast double bootstrap of Davidson and MacKinnon (2007) to hi...

This paper introduces two new commands, smpred and smmatch, that implement the statistical matching procedure proposed by Rubin (1986). The purpose of statistical matching in Rubin's procedure is to generate a single dataset from various datasets, where each dataset contains a specific variable of i...
