Institutional quality thresholds and the finance Growth nexus. (2013, methodology): “Hence, the Hansen (2000) and Caner and Hansen (2004) cross-section threshold approaches which can handle dynamic estimation are employed; (ii) institutions are deep factors and usually move slowly and thus their observed variation from year to year may be rather small (Chong and Calderon, 2000).”
International Remittances and Income Inequality: An Empirical Investigation (2006, unknown): “The control variables to be used in our regressions follow the broad literature that estimates the determinants of income inequality in cross‐country set ups (Deininger and Squire, 1997 ; Calderon and Chong, 2000 , Calderon et al, 2006 ; and others 8 ).”

Empirical Determinants of Good Institutions: Do We Know Anything? (2000, background): “Moreover, most studies have proceeded by combining as independent explanatory variables both objective or “hard” data such as economic aggregate, share of imports to GDP or wage ratios, and subjective data in the form of polls and responses to surveys.”

(2001, unknown): “Since endogeneity in the regressors is a concern (Przeworski and Limongi, 1993), I follow Barro (1996), Chong and Calderón (2000), and others, and instrument the Polity III and Freedom House variables with measures of political democracy in 1960 (Bollen, 1990) and law origin indicators.”
