Dietzenbacher, E and Hoen, A (2006) Coefficient stability and predictability in input-output models: A comparative analysis for the Netherlands. Construction Management and Economics, 24(7), pp. 671-680. ISSN 1466433X
Abstract
Following the work of Bon, this article compares the stability of two types of input-output models. These are, the Leontief (or demand-driven) model and the Ghosh (or supply-driven) model. The empirical results are based on a times series of annual input-output tables for the Netherlands, covering the period 1948-84. Three types of analysis are carried out. The first to evaluate the stability of the models' underlying coefficients over time. The second to investigate the forecasting behaviour when there is perfect foresight with respect to the models' exogenous variables. The third to examine the predictability of the models, absent of perfect foresight.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
