Clicking on the links in the upper frame makes new menus appear in the left frame. Results appear in the main frame in the center of the home page. Moving from left to right in the upper frame is more or less as moving from general to specific.
The Introduction gives general information about the organization of the home page and the model and how to practically use it.
The Download link informs you about how to download BASMOD to the disk from which you prefer to run the model.
The Model structure link gives detailed information about the model’s structure.
The link Estimated equations gives information about every estimated equation in the model. It is easy to find the specific equation and get some information about parameters, standard error or equation, etc.
There is also a News link where you can find information about the latest updates.
Information about how to use the model is contained in the User manual link. There you find information on how to download the Eviews files from the S-disk on Sveriges Riksbank’s server to your disk of preference. Before becoming an experienced user it is recommendable to have the BASMOD home page loaded in your browser simultaneously with running the model in Eviews.
The Further information link contains ??
BASMOD is a relatively large and detailed model. For users preferring a smaller and more comprehensible model AMOD (ArbetsmarknadsMODell) might be an alternative. A description of the smaller model is found in the Link to AMOD page. AMOD is a Wage-Setting/Price-Setting model with endogenous technical progress in the same spirit as BASMOD. It is primarily developed for the analysis of the labour market and the forecasting of labor market variables.
BASMOD is continuously evaluated with respect to simulations and forecasts. In the Evaluation link you can find information about different simulations performed with the model and other evaluations related to the theoretical consistency of the model. You can also discover forecast evaluations both with respect to within-sample prediction (equation fit) and out-of-sample predictions based both on a simulation basis and on historical forecasts done in the forecasting process in the Riksbank.
In addition to finding information through browsing this home page you can lean back with printed documents on different parts of or the whole of the model documentation. For a printout go to the Printable documents link.
