Abstract
This guide provides a “hands-on” introduction to gravity modeling for applied policy researchers, designed to be used in conjunction with a dataset of bilateral trade in services (available for free download). Readers are encouraged to replicate the results, using the Stata code provided. Enhanced provision of a high-quality and locally produced applied research for policymaking in all trade related areas, including trade facilitation, investment and regional integration, is a pillar of Asia-Pacific Research and Training Network on Trade (ARTNeT) operation. The guide concludes with a discussion of how the gravity model can be used in applied trade policy research.
