Abstract: | The article introduces a simple test of the leader-follower model of strategic behavior. This test reveals the relatedness of the temporal notions of leadership central to leader-follower model to statistical causality.The data used in the test is from the US softwood plywood industry of the last three decades.Authors conclude that a leder-follower model explains well the temporal relations between key strategic variables in the industry and that statistical causality is a useful method for testing the restrictions the leader-follower model imposes on observable time-series data. |
