Health cycles and health transitions (2014)
Journal Article
Chakraborty, S., Papageorgiou, C., & Perez Sebastian, F. (2016). Health cycles and health transitions. Macroeconomic dynamics, 20(1), 189-213. https://doi.org/10.1017/S1365100514000297

We study the dynamics of poverty and health in a model of endogenous growth and rational health behavior. Population health depends on the prevalence of infectious diseases that can be avoided through costly prevention. The incentive to do so comes f...

The econometric analysis of agent-based models in finance: An application (2007)
Journal Article
Li, Y., Donkers, B., & Melenberg, B. (2007). The econometric analysis of agent-based models in finance: An application. Lecture notes in computer science, 4881 LNCS, 1081-1091. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-77226-2_108

This paper illustrates how to compare different agent-based models and how to compare an agent-based model with real data. As examples we investigate ARFIMA models, the probability density function, and the spectral density function. We illustrate th...

The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour (1999)
Journal Article
Bhattarai, K., & Whalley, J. (1999). The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour. Empirical economics, 24(4), 599-619. https://doi.org/10.1007/s001810050075

Whether labour bears full burden of household level income and consumption taxes ultimately depends on the degree of substitutability among different types of labour in production. We find more variation in incidence patterns across households with l... Read More about The role of labour demand elasticities in tax incidence analysis with heterogeneous labour.
