Abstract

El análisis empírico de la productividad de las infraestructuras se ha enfrentado a múltiples problemas econométricos que parecen estar detrás de la gran variabilidad en los resultados obtenidos en la literatura. Uno de esos problemas es la multicolinealidad existente al estimar los parámetros de una función de producción regional que incluye entre los inputs la dotación de capital público. En este trabajo se aborda el problema de la multicolinealidad introduciendo información a priori sobre los parámetros de interés. Para ello, empleamos el método de máxima entropía para estimar una función de producción con datos de las regiones españolas. Los resultados de las estimaciones señalan que las infraestructuras tienen una influencia relevante en la producción.
