  -> I didn't say it was. That's one example of the use of term. There are many others with no relationship to BJ e.g. spatial models.

the lagged dependent variable


Explanation:
This translation clarifies the econometric meaning of 'término autorregresivo'

Response to Asker: In the regression in question, the dependent variable is 'la tasa de x'.

The explanatory variables are the following:
A) GDP per capita
B) The lagged 'tasa de x' (tasa de x en el pasado)
C) Opportunity cost

Regression equations that use time series data often contain lagged variables. For example, consider the regression equation:

Yt = beta0 + beta1 Yt-1 + beta2 Xt + et for t = 2,...,T

where et is a random error term and the total number of observations in the data set is T. This equation contains a lagged dependent variable as an explanatory variable. This is called an autoregressive model or a dynamic model. Note that the sample period is adjusted to start at observation 2. This is because the first observation is "lost" when a lagged variable is required. So the estimation now uses T-1 observations.

To Asker: in the text you are trying to translate:

Yt = tasa de x

Yt-1 = término autoregresivo = tasa de x(-1) = lagged dependent variable

Xt = PIB por capita = GDP per capita

What is missing in the regression above is a second explanatory variable X't that would represent the 'costo de oportunidad'

Asker: Francois: could you give some more information, please? A link or something to confirm. Thanks.

disagree  DLyons: Autoregressive also applies to spatial models and "lagged" is completely wrong in that context.// This isn't a test of my knowledge :-)
