VER Paper (AER, June 1999) Home Page
Maintained by Jim Levinsohn
There are several files used in the June 1999 AER paper.
You can download them all from this page. The wonders of
technology. A caveat: All these programs are adapted to run
on my own (Sun) workstation. If you want to run them, you
will need to change all the file locations and so on. There may
be differences between the version of Gauss for which these were
written (in 1996) and the most current version. I've done my
best to make all this stuff available, but I'm not able to answer
everyone's email queries about particular programming issues.
The main program is
base.prg
The data files that get loaded are:
panel6.asc,
otherdat.asc,
lagged_erate.asc,
and
otherdat3.asc
You will also need a gauss data file for the logit dependent variable (although
this can be commented out of the base program.) This gauss file is
y3.fmt.
The library (*.lcg) files are
berry.lcg
and
struc-inst-steve.lcg.
These library files call the following source (*.arc) files.
concat.arc,
mystat.arc,
ownopt.arc,
print.arc,
mydata.arc, and
struc-inst-steve2.arc.
Best of luck and thanks for looking at this stuff. Jim
