In an economic model, an exogenous variable is one whose measure is determined outside the model and is imposed on the model, and an exogenous change is a change in an exogenous variable. [1]: p. 8 [2]: p. 202 [3]: p. 8 In contrast, an endogenous variable is a variable whose measure is determined by the model. An endogenous change is a change ...
In this instance it would be correct to say that infestation is exogenous within the period, but endogenous over time. Let the model be y = f ( x , z ) + u . If the variable x is sequential exogenous for parameter α {\displaystyle \alpha } , and y does not cause x in the Granger sense , then the variable x is strongly/strictly exogenous for ...
Here, consumption is predetermined but not strictly exogenous. An unpredictable negative income shock will be uncorrelated with past (and potentially current) consumption, but will surely be correlated with future consumption—the individual will be forced to adjust their future consumption to accommodate their poorer state, inducing correlation.
CGE models always contain more variables than equations—so some variables must be set outside the model. These variables are termed exogenous; the remainder, determined by the model, is called endogenous. The choice of which variables are to be exogenous is called the model closure, and may give rise to controversy.
Static vs. dynamic. A dynamic model accounts for time-dependent changes in the state of the system, while a static (or steady-state) model calculates the system in equilibrium, and thus is time-invariant. Dynamic models typically are represented by differential equations or difference equations. Explicit vs. implicit.
Again, each endogenous variable depends on potentially each exogenous variable. Without restrictions on the A and B, the coefficients of A and B cannot be identified from data on y and z: each row of the structural model is just a linear relation between y and z with unknown coefficients. (This is again the parameter identification problem.)
The function h(V) is effectively the control function that models the endogeneity and where this econometric approach lends its name from. [4]In a Rubin causal model potential outcomes framework, where Y 1 is the outcome variable of people for who the participation indicator D equals 1, the control function approach leads to the following model
In the simplest exposition of Keynesian theory, the economy is assumed to be closed (which implies that NX = 0), and planned investment is exogenous and determined by the animal spirits of investors. Consumption is an affine function of income, C = a + bY where the slope coefficient b is called the marginal propensity to consume .
