Bayesian Econometrics
introduces the reader to the use of Bayesian methods in the field of econometrics at the
advanced undergraduate or graduate level. The book is self-contained and does not require
previous training in econometrics. The focus is on models used by applied economists and
the computational techniques necessary to implement Bayesian methods when doing empirical
work. It includes numerous numerical examples and topics covered in the book include:
- the regression model (and
variants applicable for use with panel data),
- time series models,
- models for qualitative or
censored data,
- nonparametric methods and
Bayesian model averaging.
