M. Artis, A. B. Galvão, and M. Marcellino, "The Transmission Mechanism in a Changing world", Journal of Applied Econometrics, Vol. 22, No. 1, 2007, pp. 39-61. All data are in the file agm-data.xls, which is an Excel spreadsheet, and also in the ASCII text file agm-data.txt, which is in DOS format and has tab delimiters. The ASCCI file agm-describe.txt contains the same information as the second sheet of the spreadsheet. The file agm-data.xls contains all GDP growth data for the six countries evaluated in the paper and the data of all possible transition variables. The transition variables are organized by name and country. The first two rows give the numbers of the first and the last observation. The above three files are zipped in the file agm-data.zip. The file data-description.pdf has all the sources and transformations applied to obtain the dataset. A short description of the variables is also available at sheet 2 of the main file. The file does not explain variables not mployed in the last version of the paper. The transition variables are described in Table 1 in the paper.
