Applied Economics Letters, 2002, vol. 9, issue 2, 127-132

Abstract: The aim of this paper is to discuss how the efficiency conclusions obtained from DEA are affected when they are complemented with bootstrap confidence intervals. Bootstrap approximations to DEA estimator distribution functions have not been practically used in empirical analysis, despite being an important statistical tool to discuss the sensitivity of the efficiency point estimator.
