A non-linear model of investment behaviour incorporating time varying adjustment speeds with threshold effects is estimated for the UK manufacturing sector. The most general non-linear specification is found to be most congruent with the data. Uncertainty has a large and significant effect on both levels and rates of adjustment.", pages = "1369-1379", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/routledg/raef/1996/00000028/00000011/art00003" }
