International Convergence in Well-Being Indicators
Vanesa Jordá,José María Sarabia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors re-examine the concept of beta-convergence in living standards across countries during the period 1980-2012 and apply a semiparametric specification of this process to the Human Development Index (HDI) and each of its intermediate indices.
Journal ArticleDOI
Explicit expressions of the Pietra index for the generalized function for the size distribution of income
José María Sarabia,Vanesa Jordá +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained closed expressions for the Pietra index for the generalized function for the size of income proposed by McDonald (1984), which is composed of three classes of distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do neighbourhood renewal programs reduce crime rates? Evidence from England
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present empirical evidence on the effectiveness of neighbourhood renewal programs by estimating the impact of the UK's Neighbourhood Renewal Fund (NRF) program on crime rates across England between 2000 and 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Risk aggregation in multivariate dependent Pareto distributions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors obtained closed expressions for the probability distribution function of aggregated risks with multivariate dependent Pareto distributions, where the probability density function corresponds to a second kind beta distribution, obtaining the VaR, TVaR and several other tail risk measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bivariate beta-generated distributions with applications to well-being data
TL;DR: In this article, three new classes of bivariate beta-generated distributions are proposed using three different definitions of BGs with classical beta marginals and different covariance structures, and the main properties of these three classes are studied.
