A Meta-Analysis of Beta- Convergence (2005, unknown): “Third, our sample contains over 600 estimates as compared to the 214 observations used in Dobson et al. (2003). Finally, we more fully exploit the variety of statistical techniques available for meta-analysis, including an extensive descriptive exploratory analysis.”
Regional convergence and growth in Europe: understanding patterns and determinants (2011, background): “These seemingly conflicting results may simply indicate that in reality there is a concomitance of regional convergence and regional divergence trends (Giannetti, 2002; Petrakos et al., 2005c; Dobson et al., 2006; Ezcurra and Rapún, 2006).”
Meta-analysis of the impact of European Union Structural Funds on regional growth (2017, background): “As in Dobson, Ramlogan, and Strobl (2006), this paper finds that it would be impossible to take into account all the conditioning variables given the limited size of the sample and that several of them can be found in some individual studies only.”
Aid Effectiveness on Growth. A Meta Study (2008, background): “Recent examples include Gorg and Strobl (2001), Doucouliagos and Laroche (2003), Jarrell and Stanley (2004) and Dobson et al. (2006).”
Unions and Profits: A Meta-Regression Analysis (2009, background): “Recent examples of MRA include Gorg and Strobl (2001), Doucouliagos and Laroche (2003), Jarrell and Stanley (2004) and Dobson et al. (2006).”
