Abstract

This paper revisits the joint and conditional Lagrange multiplier tests derived by Debarsy and Ertur (2010) for a fixed effects spatial lag regression model with spatial autoregressive error, and derives these tests using artificial double length regressions (DLR). These DLR tests and their corresponding LM tests are compared using an empirical example and a Monte Carlo simulation.
