Journal of Regional Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The determinants of firm exit in Germany, with a particular focus on the role of spatial dependence, are investigated.

Markov Determinantal Point Process for Dynamic Random Sets

Journal of Time Series Analysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Law of Determinantal Point Process (LDPP) is a flexible parametric family of distributions over random sets defined on a finite state space, or equivalently over multivariate binary variables. The aim of this paper is to introduce Markov processes of random sets within the LDPP framework. We show that, when the pairwise distribution of two

Investigating the Relation Between Second Language Proficiency and Study Success Using a Causal Inference Approach

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract Prior research suggests that second language (L2) proficiency is key in students’ study progress, but this research has mainly been carried out at universities. It is thus unclear how this relation varies across different educational levels. Moreover, previous studies are often not informative about the causality of this relation, making it ...

Abstract Purpose Although interviews are individual in nature, and suggestiveness is a major pitfall when questioning children, individual differences in interviewer bias and suggestiveness remain understudied. We assessed relationships between Cognitions and Emotions about Child Sexual Abuse (CECSA) with suggestive questioning and bias across three ...

The Economic Effects of ‘Excessive’ Financial Deepening

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the causal implications of high levels of financial deepening for economic development and banking crises in a panel of countries over the past seven decades. We adopt a factor‐augmented heterogeneous difference‐in‐differences estimator and find, in contrast to the existing literature, that very high levels of financial development do

The Biased Reaction to Changes in Family‐Related Public Expenditure: How Generosity and Universalism Relate to Fertility

Using European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU‐SILC) data from 2005 to 2020, the research investigates how increases and reductions in family allowances are connected to the likelihood of subsequent births

Decarbonization Politics for All: Means‐Tested Social Assistance, Eco‐Social Values, and Public Support for Increased Fossil Fuel Taxes in Europe

Regulation &Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many climate change mitigation policies face public opposition, especially when they impose visible costs on households and are perceived as unfairly regressive. This country‐comparative study examines specific social policy instruments that may help build public support for increasing fossil fuel taxes in Europe.
