A bootstrapping approach for generating an inverse distance weight matrix when multiple observations have an identical location in large health surveys

A bootstrapping approach for generating an inverse distance weight matrix when multiple observations have an identical location in large health surveys

Abstract Spatial weight matrices play a key role in econometrics to capture spatial effects. However, these constructs are prone to clustering and can be challenging to analyse in common statistical packages such as STATA. Multiple observations of survey participants in the same location (or cluster...
