Tenure choice and expected mobility: A synthesis

This study employs a joint logit probability model to estimate the effects of a vector of independent variables on the household's current tenure choice and expected mobility which are hypothesized to be simultaneously determined. In the empirical analysis it was found that the coefficient on the endogenous variables (tenure choice and expected mobility) is the most highly significant of all the coefficients estimated. In addition, in previous analyses the age of the household head has always exhibited a highly significant positive effect on the probability of ownership. However, in this analysis it is demonstrated that this age variable was acting as a proxy for the expected mobility and wealth of the household.

Simultaneous Prediction Intervals for a Regression Model

This article provides methods for constructing simultaneous prediction intervals to contain the means of the dependent variable in a regression model for each of k future samples at k sets of values of the independent variables, some or all of which may be different. The methods are compared with previously proposed approximate procedures. The construction of simultaneous confidence intervals to contain the true regression at all of k vectors of independent variables is also presented.
