Instrumental Variables (IV) estimates tend to be biased in the same direction as
Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) in finite samples if the instruments are weak. To address
this problem we propose a new IV estimator which we call Split Sample…

This paper tests the hypothesis that compulsory school attendance
laws, which typically require school attendance until a specified birthday,
induce a relationship between years of schooling and age at school entry.
Variation in school start age created by children's date…

This paper develops a model of occupational matching where, within an
occupation, information at one job may be useful for predicting the match at
other jobs. Recent developments in the theory of superprocesses are used to
derive the optimal sampling…

Background: Intra-urban inequalities in mortality have been infrequently analysed in European contexts. The aim of the present study was to analyse patterns of cancer mortality and their relationship with socioeconomic deprivation in small areas in 11 Spanish cities. Methods: It…

Cherry tomato samples were osmotically dehydrated in different hypertonic NaCI solutions (with or without sucrose) at two different concentrations. Mass transfer kinetics were modelled according to Peleg, Fick and Page equations. The Peleg equation presented the best fitting for water…

The apparent diffusion coefficients for sucrose and water during osmotic dehydration of jenipapos were determined. Long time experiments (up to 60 h) were carried out in order to determine equilibrium concentrations inside jenipapos, whereas short time experiments (up to 4…
