内容简介:
Spatial Econometrics is a sub-field of Econometrics that allows modeling spatial dependence or spatial autocorrelation in regression models. It focuses on modeling relationships, explicitly accounting for spatial effects. The field is regarded as one of the most rapidly growing areas in Econometrics today, with applications in various domains. This presentation will briefly introduce the theory of spatial econometrics and provide application in two studies: (1) Spatial Dynamics of Economic Growth: The Case of US Counties; (2) Social Relationship and Behavioral Spillover: The Case of Irrigated and Rainfed Rice Farmers in Bohol, the Philippines.
