Computation of elasticities in CoDa regression models
Description
This function computes elasticities and semi-elasticities for CoDa regression model. where we have to distinguish four cases:
Y and X are both compositional: this leads to an elasticity
Y is compositional and X is scalar: this leads to a semi-elasticity
Y is scalar and X is compositional: this leads to a semi-elasticity
Y and X are both scalar: this case is not implemented as it leads to constant marginal effects
Usage
Impacts(object, Xvar = NULL, obs = 1)
Arguments
object |
an object of class "lmCoDa" |
Xvar |
a character indicating the name of one explanatory variable |
obs |
a numeric that refers to the indicator of one observation |
Details
The mathematical foundation for elasticity computations in CoDa model come from Morais and Thomas-Agnan (2021). Dargel and Thomas-Agnan (2024) present further results and illustrations.
Value
a matrix
