When I worked on my Introduction to Multiple Time Series Analysis (Lutk ̈ ̈-pohl (1991)), a
suitable textbook for this? eld was not available. Given the great importance these methods …

This paper examines several extensions of the stochastic frontier that account for
unmeasured heterogeneity as well as firm inefficiency. The fixed effects model is extended …

Chapter 1 describes two broad paradigms for measuring economic efficiency, one based on
an essentially nonparametric, programming approach to analysis of observed outcomes …

When Harold Fried, et al. published The Measurement of Productive Efficiency: Techniques
and Applications with OUP in 1993, the book received a great deal of professional interest …

Owing to dissatisfaction with the IMF's de jure classification of exchange-rate regimes, a
substantial literature has emerged presenting de facto classifications of exchange-rate …

The pollution haven hypothesis (PHH) posits that production within polluting industries will
shift to locations with lax environmental regulation. While straightforward, the existing …

The paper proposes a stochastic frontier model with random coefficients to separate
technical inefficiency from technological differences across firms, and free the frontier model …

Authors who do not distinguish between Emerging Market Economies (EMEs) and other
developing countries, find evidence of negative and significant effects of exchange-rate …

In this paper, we investigate the link between windfall gains and losses of income
associated with commodity exports and economic performance in a panel of 45 sub …

Received analyses based on stochastic frontier modeling with panel data have relied
primarily on results from traditional linear fixed and random effects models. This paper …
