Méthodes

Ce thème de recherche transversal comprend les avancées méthodologiques en matière de mesures et de méthodes économétriques. Cette recherche s’appuie sur les avancées récentes dans d’autres disciplines, en s’appuyant par exemple sur les techniques de télédétection pour améliorer la mesure de l’utilisation des terres, de la productivité et de la croissance économique, ou sur les progrès de la psychométrie pour améliorer la validité et la fiabilité des traits latents dans les enquêtes auprès des ménages.
