Mixed Markov transition probabilities can be used to implement estimation and testing procedures for between-group homogeneity and within-group mobility measures. The aim of this note is to examine the procedure for obtaining a Markov matrix and mobility measures, and to assess their statistical properties.

Abstract

Mixed Markov transition probabilities can be used to implement estimation and testing procedures for between-group homogeneity and within-group mobility measures. The aim of this note is to examine the procedure for obtaining a Markov matrix and mobility measures, and to assess their statistical properties. The methodology is then applied to study TFP dynamics in a sample of European firms with the aim of detecting persistence and differences by firm size.
