A Global Assessment of Human Capital Mobility: The Role of Non-OECD Destinations (2014, positive): “Recent examples in this literature include Anderson (2011), Beine et al. (2011) and Hanson and Grogger (2011), Ortega and Peri (2012), Beine and Salamone (2013) and Bertoli and Fernandez-Huertas Moraga (2013). Our model most closely follows that of approach of Beine et al (2011) and Hanson and Grogg”
A practitioners' guide to gravity models of international migration (2016, neutral): “Limited progress has been made on the measurement of policy-induced migration costs compared to the existing data sources on tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade (see Anderson and van Wincoop, 2004). Early attempts have been provided by Clark, Hatton, and Williamson (2007), Mayda (2010) and Orteg”
Gravity Equations: Workhorse,Toolkit, and Cookbook (2013, positive): “Anderson (2011) presents a migration gravity model drawing on discrete choice techniques.”
Restoring the Tower of Babel: How Foreign Firms Communicate with U.S. Investors (2014, neutral): “ The gravity model shows that, after controlling for each country’s gross domestic product, a strong predictor of bilateral trade is the distance between the two countries (Anderson 2011).”
The Gains from Market Integration (2015, neutral): “…a number of outstanding recent surveys on related topics, such as gains from trade and quantitative gravity models (Harrison & RodríguezClare 2010, Anderson 2011, Costinot & Rodríguez-Clare 2014, Head & Mayer 2014), the distributional consequences of trade openness (Winters et al. 2004, Goldberg…”
Estimating the effects of non‐discriminatory trade policies within structural gravity models (2017, neutral): “We refer the reader to Anderson (2011), Costinot and Rodríguez-Clare (2014), Head and Mayer (2014) and Yotov et al. (2016) for recent gravity surveys.”
How remote are R&D labs? Distance factors and international innovative activities (2013, positive): “Once the size (and other characteristics) of the countries (Tinbergen’s “economic attractors”) have been accounted for, the negative effect of distance on bilateral economic transactions is one of the most robust findings in economics (Anderson, 2011; De Benedictis & Taglioni, 2011; Leamer & Levinso”
Information Frictions in Trade (2014, neutral): “A large variety of trade models (see Anderson (2011) and Arkolakis, Costinot, and Rodŕıguez-Clare (forthcoming)) yield the following empirical formulation of the “gravity” equation: lnQij = β lnTij + δi + δj + εij”
Exporter Dynamics Database (2012, positive): “34 The gravity model of trade that relates bilateral trade flows between two countries to their economic size and variable trade costs is one of the most successful empirical models in economics (Anderson, 2011).”
Intra-national trade costs: Assaying regional frictions (2019, neutral): “Thus, while the estimates of the Cobb-Douglas terms from columns (2) and (4) may not be statistically different from each other, the relatively large differences in their magnitudes point to potential caveats in the Cobb-Douglas assumption to identify UTBs.”
Climatic Factors as Determinants of International Migration (2015, positive): “In the Anderson (2011) set-up, Nij,t is the analogue to the export flow from i to j at time t; Nii,t is akin to the value of goods sold by domestic firms in their own country and Ni,t is comparable to the total stock of goods available at time t for export and domestic consumption.”
The Hyperglobalization of Trade and Its Future (2013, positive): “As Krugman (1995) and Anderson (2011) show, under frictionless trade, the world trade share is inversely related to the”
The impact of mega-sport events on tourist arrivals (2011, neutral): “3 See, for example, the recent contribution by Anderson (2010). contribute to both the theoretical foundation and the empirical estimation of gravity equations by developing a method that consistently and efficiently estimates a theoretical gravity equation which considers both multilateral and bila”
