Interpretation of Bayesian IRF
Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2012 10:31 pm
Hi Dynare users,
I'm quite new of Dynare. I have a doubt on Bayesian IRF. Following previous posts, I understood how they are computed. What is not yet clear to me is what is the magnitude of the shock: do the IRFs represent the responses to a "stderr" shock, as estimated during the estimation process, or are they the responses to a 1%, or 1 sd, or whatever...?
Thanks a lot!
