Abstract

ABSTRACT A substantial hotly of applied statistical and econometric analysis in regional science and geography deals with data collected for aggregate spatial units of observation. These data are typically affected by a variety of measurement problems, resulting in spatial dependence and spatial heterogeneity. However, most of the empirical work fails to take this into account. In this paper, we address the issue of the extent to which spatial effects matter in applied regression analysis. An overview of the formal methodological problems is given, and related to the literature in spatial statistics and spatial econometrics.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
