COMPARISON OF MODEL AVERAGING TECHNIQUES: ASSESSING GROWTH DETERMINANTS
模型平均方法比较:评估经济增长的决定因素
SUMMARY This paper investigates the replicability of three important studies on growth theory uncertainty that employed Bayesian model averaging tools. We compare these results with estimates obtained using alternative, recently developed model averaging techniques. Overall, we successfully replicate all three studies, find that the sign and magnitude of these new estimates are reasonably close to those produced via traditional Bayesian methods and deploy a novel strategy to…
