Based on the above specification, we estimated the equations with annual panel data over the 1970–2000 period for about 90 developing countries. 8. 4 for reporting and interpretation of t-values as well as for the econometric techniques of deriving the estimates. variables are statistically significant and have the expected signs in our first stage decision-making (or probit) equations, except for the coefficient of the share of industrial value added in GDP which (though with the expected sign) does not pass the statistical significance test.
