Spatial Diffusion of Civil Liberty
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)This paper studies the existence of spatial diffusion of civil liberty among neighboring countries. For that purpose, we first combine different exploratory space-time data analysis approaches to find that this phenomenon ... -
Human Capital Constraints, Spatial Dependence, and Regionalization in Bolivia: A Spatial Clustering Approach
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)Using a novel dataset, this article studies the spatial distribution of human capital constraints across 339 municipalities in Bolivia. In particular, five human capital constraints are evaluated: chronic malnutrition in ... -

The Scan-LM to Test Instability in the Constant Coefficient of Spatial Autoregressive Models
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)This paper presents a test based on the principle of Lagrange Multipliers to identify spatial instability in the constant coefficient of regression models including substantive spatial dependence. The test has been adapted ... -
A Simple Test of Spatial Autocorrelation for Centered Variables
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)We present a simple test of spatial autocorrelation based on the skedastic structure of the spatial series. Its distribution function is known for all sample sizes. Moreover, it is very simple to obtain, specially in a ... -
Where Are the Poor Located? A Spatial Heterogeneity Analysis of Monetary Poverty in Peru
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)Measuring poverty is a first step to the design of effective public policies, however, it is also essential to know where the poor are located. The main objective of this research is to evaluate the spatial heterogeneity ... -
Price and Spatial Distribution of Office Rental in Madrid: A Decision Tree Analysis
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)In this paper, we assess the drivers of office rental prices in the municipality of Madrid with a sample of 4,721 offices in March, 2020. The estimation was performed using the decision tree approach, which was built with ... -
Empirical Identification of Intra-Urban Subcentralities: A New Methodological Approach with an Application for a Developing Country
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)We present a new empirical approach for identifying sub-centers within urban areas and apply it to the São Paulo metropolitan area (SPMA). We use geographically weighted regressions (GWR) to overcome the limitations presented ... -
Estimation of Spatial Lag Model Under Random Missing Data in the Dependent Variable. Two Stage Estimator with Imputation
(Pontificia Universidad Católica del PerúPE, 2021-05-06)The main goal of this article is to propose estimators for the Spatial Lag Model (SLM) under missing data context. We present three alternatives estimators for the SLM based on Two Stage Least Squares estimation methodology. ...
