  • Does the Barro-Gordon Model Explain the Behavior of US Inflation? a Reexamination of the Empirical Evidence 

    Ruge-Murcia, Francisco (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2002)
    This paper tests the predictions of the Barro-Gordon model using US data on inflation and unemployment. To that end, it constructs a general game-theoretical model with asymmetric preferences that nests the Barro-Gordon model and a version of Cukierman’s ...
  • Simulation-Based Finite-Sample Tests for Heteroskedasticity and ARCH Effects
