• The Refinement of Econometric Estimation and Test Procedures: Finite Sample and Asymptotic Analysis (edited book)
    with Elias Tzavalis
    Cambridge University Press. 2007.
    The small sample properties of estimators and tests are frequently too complex to be useful or are unknown. Much econometric theory is therefore developed for very large or asymptotic samples where it is assumed that the behaviour of estimators and tests will adequately represent their properties in small samples. Refined asymptotic methods adopt an intermediate position by providing improved approximations to small sample behaviour using asymptotic expansions. Dedicated to the memory of Michael…Read more
