Robust Tests of Forecast Accuracy for Factor‐Augmented Regressions With an Application to the Novel EA‐MD‐QD Dataset

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present four novel tests of equal predictive accuracy and encompassing á Pitarakis (2023, 2025) for factor‐augmented regressions. Factors are estimated using cross‐section averages (CAs) of grouped series and our theoretical findings are empirically relevant: asymptotic normality, robustness to an overspecification of the number of factors,

Improving the Finite Sample Estimation of Average Treatment Effects Using Double/Debiased Machine Learning With Propensity Score Calibration

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Double/debiased machine learning (DML) uses for estimating an average treatment effect (ATE) a double‐robust score function that relies on the prediction of nuisance functions, such as the propensity score, which is the probability of treatment assignment given covariates.

Reassessing the Cross‐Sectional Fiscal Multiplier: Evidence From U.S. Defense Procurement, 1966–2019

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper revisits the empirical analysis of Nakamura and Steinsson (2014). I reconstructed and extended the original dataset to cover the period 1966–2019, harmonizing two major sources of data: the Defense Contract Action Data System (DCADS) and USAspending.gov. I discuss how to aggregate these contract‐level data to better capture spending

Bayesian Model Averaging in Causal Instrumental Variable Models

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Instrumental variables are a popular tool to infer causal effects under unobserved confounding, but choosing suitable instruments is challenging in practice. We propose gIVBMA, a Bayesian model averaging procedure that addresses this challenge by averaging across different sets of instrumental variables and covariates in a structural equation ...

Neural correlates of resilience to trauma during adolescence: A multi‐modal study

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Understanding resilience mechanisms is important for advancing early intervention strategies, yet research on the neurobiology of resilience in adolescents is limited. The present study examined the brain structural and resting‐state functional connectivity (rsFC) correlates of resilience to internalizing and externalizing symptoms ...

Disentangling shared and unique effects of parenting on psychopathology: Evidence from two prospective, genetically sensitive cohort studies

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Multiple dimensions of parenting–including hostility, conflict, and warmth–are associated with an array of mental disorders in youth. We tested two possible explanations for these associations: Parenting may shape a shared liability to experience many forms of psychopathology (“shared‐liability” hypothesis), or parenting may shape ...

From Empire to Aid: Analysing Persistence of Colonial Legacies in Foreign Aid to Africa

open access: yesJournal of International Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT For decades now, Western development agencies and donors have been castigated for their colonial biases in providing aid to Africa. It is well established that donors provide considerably more foreign aid to their former colonies relative to other countries.
