Empirical Economics

Empirical Economics publishes high-quality papers that apply advanced econometric or statistical methods to confront economic theory with observed data.

• Exemplary topics are treatment effect estimation, policy evaluation, forecasting, and econometric methods.
• Contributions may focus on the estimation of established relationships between economic variables or on the testing of hypotheses.
• Emphasizes the replicability of empirical results: replication studies may be published as short papers.
• Follows a single-blind review procedure (authors’ names are known to reviewers, but reviewers are anonymous to authors). 
• Submissions that have poor chances of receiving positive reviews are routinely rejected without sending the papers for review.
