Bootstrap Methods and Applications in Econometrics - A Brief Survey

Pål Bergström

No 1999:2, Working Paper Series from Uppsala University, Department of Economics

Abstract: This paper provides a brief survey of the bootstrap and its use in econometrics. As an introduction, the paper gives a description of the basics of the method, with a special emphasis on boostrap testing. A fairly large amount of space is devoted to discuss why bootstrap tests provide refinements compared to equivalent asymptotic tests. A series of recent different applications in the econometrics literature is then surveyed, in order to give a picture of this rapidly evolving research field.
