A state space approach for estimating VAR models for panel data with latent dynamic components
Raknerud, Arvid (Discussion Papers;No. 295, Working paper, 2001)Abstract: The econometric literature offers various modeling approaches for analyzing micro data in combination with time series of aggregate data. This paper discusses the estimation of a VAR model that allows unobserved ... -
Can non-market regulations spur innovations in environmental technologies? A study on firm level patenting
Klemetsen, Marit Elisabeth; Bye, Brita; Raknerud, Arvid (Discussion papers;754, Working paper, 2013-09)This paper provides new evidence on the role of non-market based (“command-and-control”) regulations in relation to innovations in environmental technologies.

Effekter av SkatteFUNN på foretakenes produktivitet og lønnsomhet
Cappelen, Ådne; Raknerud, Arvid; Rybalka, Marina (Journal article, 2007)Etterspørselen etter gass er i vekst verden over og kostnadene ved å transportere gassen har falt betraktelig. Samtidig ser vi en utvikling mot deregulerte og integrerte regionale gassmarkeder. Hva skjer med prisene i ... -

Estimating the returns to schooling : a likelihood approach based on normal mixtures
Dagsvik, John K.; Hægeland, Torbjørn; Raknerud, Arvid (Discussion Papers;No. 567, Working paper, 2008)Abstract: In this paper we develop likelihood based methods for statistical inference in a joint system of equations for the choice of length of schooling and earnings. The model for schooling choice is assumed to be ... -
Estimation of a model for matched panel data with high-dimensional two-way unobserved heterogeneity.
Nilsen, Øivind Anti; Raknerud, Arvid; Skjerpen, Terje (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-10-11)We consider a model for matched data with two types of unobserved effects: a random effect related to the main observational unit and a random or fixed effect related to a secondary unit to which the main unit is matched. ... -
