Dear all,

I’m trying to load the posterior mean for the estimated parameters and shock stderr in another .mod file where I’m going to use the osr procedure. How can I do this?

Thank you for answers.

You should be able to use save_params_and_steady_state
and

See the manual for details

Dear jpfeifer,

thank you for your help. I have tried to use the following command to run estimated parameters when using the osr procedure:
xr=load(‘Results.mat’);
M_.params=xr.M_.params;

My question is, where the above command has to be placed?

CASE 1:

optim_weights;
pi_c 0.2;
y_hat 1;
end;

osr_params rho_r phi_pi phi_y;

rho_r =0.25;
phi_pi = 0.25;
phi_y = 0.25;

xr=load(‘OriginalResults2.mat’);
M_.params=xr.M_.params;
osr (nograph) pi_c pi_hat y_hat;

CASE 2:
xr=load(‘OriginalResults2.mat’);
M_.params=xr.M_.params;

optim_weights;
pi_c 0.2;
y_hat 1;
end;

osr_params rho_r phi_pi phi_y;

rho_r =0.25;
phi_pi = 0.25;
phi_y = 0.25;

osr (nograph) pi_c pi_hat y_hat;

Case 1 of course. In case 2 the setting of the parameters after loading the previous ones would overwrite what you loaded.
