Sommario/riassunto

Develop a Deep Understanding of the Statistical Issues of APC AnalysisAge-Period-Cohort Models: Approaches and Analyses with Aggregate Data presents an introduction to the problems and strategies for modeling age, period, and cohort (APC) effects for aggregate-level data. These strategies include constrained estimation, the use of age and/or period and/or cohort characteristics, estimable functions, variance decomposition, and a new technique called the s-constraint approach. See How Common Methods Are Related to Each OtherAfter a general and wide-ranging introductory chapter, the book explain
