avg.pair.cc {BGVAR} | R Documentation |
Computes average pairwise cross-sectional correlations of the data and the country models' residuals. To be more specific, for each country and a given variable, the average cross-sectional correlation is computed (either for the data or for the residuals). In theory, including foreign variables should soak up cross-sectional residual dependence and correlation of the residuals should be small. Otherwise dynamic analysis, especially using GIRFs, might lead to invalid results. See Dees et al. (2007) for more details.

data.cor |
is a matrix containing in the rows the cross-sections and in the columns the cross-sectional pairwise correlations of the data per variable. |
resid.cor |
is a matrix containing in the rows the cross-sections and in the columns the cross-sectional pairwise correlations of the country models' residuals per variable. |
resid.corG |
is a matrix containing in the rows the cross-sections and in the columns the cross-sectional pairwise correlations of the global models' residuals per variable. Only availabe when |
dat.res |
is a summary object showing the number and percentage of correlations <0.1, between 0.1-0.2, 0.2-0.5 and <0.5 per variable of the data. |
res.res |
is a summary object showing the number and percentage of correlations <0.1, between 0.1-0.2, 0.2-0.5 and <0.5 per variable of the country models' residuals. This is also what is used by |
