Abstract:
|
This paper considers the estimation of the geographical scope of industrial location
determinants. While previous studies impose strong assumptions on the weighting
scheme of the spatial neighbour matrix, we propose a
exible parametrisation
that allows for di fferent (distance-based) de finitions of neighbourhood and di fferent
weights to the neighbours. In particular, we estimate how far can reach indirect
marginal e ffects and discuss how to report them. We also show that the use of
smooth transition functions provides tools for policy analysis that are not available
in the traditional threshold modelling.
Keywords: count data models, industrial location, smooth transition functions,
threshold models.
