Some varieties of robustness (2006, background): “As Hoover and Perez (2004) note, in conducting a sensitivity analysis it is necessary to consider all possible combinations of causally relevant independent variables, something that Levine and Renelt do not do and that quickly leads to a combinatorial explosion if the number of potentially…”
Intelligence, Human Capital, and Economic Growth: A Bayesian Averaging of Classical Estimates (BACE) Approach (2005, unknown): “For further information on the Sala-i-Martin dataset, as well as for a methodological critique of Sala-i-Martin's methodology, Hoover and Perez [2000] is invaluable.”
How Does Foreign Direct Investment Really Affect Developing Countries' Growth? (2012, methodology): “To determine which of the above variables are important for explaining the cross-country variations in the effect of FDI on economic growth, we use the general-to-specific model selection approach suggested by Hoover and Perez (2004).”
Economic Emergence: an Evolutionary Economic Perspective (2012, background): “Taking advantage of states of uncertainty requires a combination of imagination, logic and some, necessarily incomplete, knowledge of the actual context in which a goal might be pursued (Loasby (2011)) Shackle’s fundamental point was that no logic of calculation can be sufficient of itself to unders”
Automatic selection of indicators in a fully saturated regression (2008, methodology): “For general analysis of Gets, see inter alia, Hoover and Perez (1999, 2004) , Krolzig and Hendry (2001), Hendry and Krolzig (2001, 2003, 2005), Campos et al. (2003), Granger and Hendry (2003), and Campos et al. (2005); details of the standard PcGets algorithm are presented in the appendix to Hendry”
Growth and human capital: good data, good results (2007, background): “14 In contrast Hoover and Perez (2004) and Hendry and Krolzig (2004) find that only a few variables are robustly correlated with growth. In particular they find that different measurements of human capital are not correlated with growth. Similarly, Levine and Renelt (1992) find that only the investm”
Economic Modelling as Robustness Analysis (2010, unknown): “Paul Krugman ([1991]) provided the first model, generally referred to as the CP model (C for ‘core’ and P for ‘periphery’).”
What Makes Growth Sustained? (2008, background): “(2004), Hoover and Perez (2004) and Hendry and Krolzig (2004)).”
