MULTIPARAMETRIC AND HIERARCHICAL SPATIAL AUTOREGRESSIVE MODELS: THE EVALUATION OF THE MISSPECIFICATION OF SPATIAL EFFECTS USING A MONTE CARLO SIMULATION

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the spatial and hierarchical models for data generating processes with spatial heterogeneity and spatial dependence at the higher level. The simulation for the m-SAR and HSAR models was used to discuss the consequences of spatial misspecification. We noticed that...
