This paper intends to provide applied economists which study the effects of research and development with valuable information on econometric model selection. It includes extensive discussion on econometric models which have been applied for the study on the relationship between research and development and productivity. In particular, it compares various stochastic production frontier models which have been developed recently. The discussion decomposes them into models with scaling property and the ones with nonscaling property as well as models with monotonic and nonmonotonic relationships between research and development and productivity. Finally, this paper applies the models to two different panel data sets (firm level data and country level data) and compare estimation results from competing econometric models.

This paper investigates the wage losses of displaced workers, using data from the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. Previous Korean studies were only to estimate the wage losses shortly after job displacement. However, if the wage losses persist, those results seem to under-estimate the effects of displacement. Our findings show that the wage reductions are quite persistent 4 years after displacement. And much of this persistence can be explained by the lost labor market experience (lost opportunities to accumulate generalized skills) and additional job losses in the years following an initial displacement.

국내일반은행 연체율은 그룹(대출형태)별로 다양한 원인에 의해서 연체율 결정이 이루어지고 있어 복잡성을 띠고 있다. 본 연구에서는 복잡성을 띠고 있는 연체율의 제 변인들을 파악하기 위해 패널 데이터 모형를 이용한 연구 모형을 설정하고 이를 통해 연체율에 결정적으로 영향을 미치는 제 변인에 대하여 조사, 분석, 검증한다. 본 연구는 3 그룹(기업대출, 가계대출, 신용카드 대출)을 분석대상으로 하였다. 분석기간은 2005년 1월부터 2009년 6월까지의 자료를 이용하였고. 국내은행 연체율을 종속변수로 설정하고 소비자물가지수, 종합주가지수, 환율, 동행(경기)종합지수, 국민주택채권, 고용률을 독립 변수로 투입하였다. 국내일반은행 연체율 요인을 추정한 결과 소비자물가지수는 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 유의한 변수로 나타나고 동행(경기)종합지수와 종합주가지수는 음(-)의 영행을 나타내는 유의적인 변수이지만 환율, 국민주택채권 그리고 고용률은 각각 유의적인 음(-)의 영행을 나타내는 비유의적인 변수로서 연체율에 큰 영향으로 주지는 않은 것으로 나타났다.

Using panel data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study(KLlPS), we examine the wage differentials between standard and Don-standard workers. To control for unobserved individual heterogeneities, we estimate the fixed effect models. Our results show that the OLS estimates are upwardly biased. We also find that labor unions and firm size are important determinants of the wage differentials.

Estimating the effects of price increase on a company's sales is important task faced by managers. If consumer has prior information on price increase or expects it, there would be stockpiling and subsequent drops in sales. In addition, consumer can suppress demand in the short run. These factors make the sales dynamic and unstable. In this paper we develop a time series model to evaluate the sales patterns with stockpiling and short-term suppression of demand and also propose a forecasting procedure. For estimation, we use panel data and extend the model to Bayesian hierarchical structure. By borrowing strength across cross-sectional units, this estimation scheme gives more robust and reasonable result than one from the individual estimation. Furthermore, the proposed scheme yields improved predictive power in the forecasting of hold-out sample periods.

In this paper, we propose indoor positioning algorithm performed at the image sensor equipped in mobile station, which receives the light signal from LED panels. To evaluate the performance of positioning algorithm, we consider the ambient noise existing indoor environment, and it is found that the proposed algorithm estimates the position of mobile station with high accuracy regardless of existence of ambient noise.

본 논문에서는 플라이백 컨버터 전력조절기의 스위치전류 센싱을 통한 최대전력 추종 제어 구현을 제안한다. 여분의 전류 센서를 사용하지 않고 연속도통모드(CCM)에서 PV전류를 추정 하기 위하여 전류 센싱이 가능한 SenseFET 스위치를 사용한다. 최대전력추종제어를 하기 위해 태양광 패널의 전류 정보가 필요하며 이 값은 플라이백 전력조절기에서 스위치 전류의 평균값과 같다. 따라서 본 논문에서는, SenseFET을 이용한 전류 측정방법을 이용하여 하드웨어를 구현하고 제안한 방식을 검증하였다.

본 연구는 한국 제조업의 기업별 <패널>자료를 이용하여 확율 적 생산함수를 추정한 다음, 우리 나라의 주종 수출산업인 섬유산업과 전자산업의 기술적 효율성이 1980년대에 하락한 이유를 규명하기 위하여 동종산업내의 각 기업들의 기술적 효율성의 결정요인을 계량분석을 통해 분석하였다. 성장산업인 전자산업과 사양산업인 섬유산업의 산업 내 (intra-industry) 기술적 효율성의 결정요인은 상하였다. 성장산업인 전자산업의 경우, 상대적인 기업의 크기와 노동비용의 상대적 크기는 기술적 효율성과 각각 정의 관계를 보이고 있는데 비해, 사양산업인 섬유산업의 경우, 총 매출액에서 수출이 차지하는 비중과 기술적 효율성과 반의 관계를 보였다. 즉 1980년대 섬유산업의 기술적 효율성이 하락한 중요한 요인은 동 산업의 수출부진과 상대적인 노동비용의 상승을 들 수 있으며, 성장산업인 전자산업의 경우는 일부 대기업의 집중도 심화가 동 산업의 평균적 기술적 효율성의 하락요인이 되었음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 경쟁의 촉진과 기업 집중도의 완화가 기술적 효율성을 향상시키는 데 중요하다는 점을 보여주고 있다.

To investigate the interdependence of the decisions on when to retire and how much consume before and after retirement, we compare the pre- (or post-) retirement consumption conditioned on the retirement decision with pre- (or post-) retirement consumption regardless of retirement decision by using the Korea Labor and Income Panel Study(KLIPS). We employ the two-stage switching regression for the econometric method to investigate the interdependence of two decisions of retirement and pre- or post retirement consumption. Then we test the existence of the interdependence in terms of the significance of the estimated selection biases which appear in the pre- (post-) retirement consumption equations for early and late retirees. In those equations, we also compare the income elasticity of the consumption of the early retirees with that of the late retirees. The empirical results show that there is negative selection bias in early retirees' consumption. These results imply that due to the early retirement decision early retirees would have consumed less than they actually have. The income elasticities of the consumption of the early retirees is smaller than that of the late retirees in pre- (or post-) retirement consumption equation. This result shows that relatively longer retirement period due 10 the early retirement affect the pre-retirement consumption. early retirees' marginal propensity to consume should be lower than that of the late retirees.

We propose proper methods to impute the item nonresponse in 4-8-4 rotation sample survey. We consider nonignorable nonresponse mechanism that can happen when survey deals with sensitive question (e.g. income, labor force). We utilize modeling imputation method based on Bayesian approach to avoid a boundary solution problem. We also estimate a interview time bias using imputed data and calculate cell expectation and marginal probability on fixed time after removing estimated bias. We compare the mean squared errors and bias between maximum likelihood method and Bayesian methods using simulation studies.
