Keeping off the grass? An econometric model of cannabis consumption in Britain
利用1998年英国青年调查数据，构建了一个动态个体大麻消费模型，区分了初次使用和后续消费过程，并考虑了教育离校和离家对消费行为的影响。
Abstract This paper presents estimates of a dynamic individual‐level model of cannabis consumption, using data from a 1998 survey of young people in Britain. The econometric model is a split‐population generalization of the non‐stationary Poisson process, allowing for separate dynamic process for initiation into cannabis use and subsequent consumption. The model allows for heterogeneity in consumption levels and behavioural shifts induced by leaving education and the parental home. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
