With this research project, we intend to carry out a systematic quantitative analysis of the empirical economic literature on the debt-growth ratio. The statistical tool we intend to use is a meta-analysis, which will allow us:
- To qualify and quantify the effect of public debt on economic growth;
- To analyze the degree of heterogeneity of the studies selected according to PRISMA statements;
- To perform an analysis of both categorical and continuous moderators (and thus determine whether the heterogeneity in the results depends on the year of publication of the study, the income level of the sample considered, other variables used in the estimates, the methodology used, etc.);
- To identify whether publication bias is present and correct it if necessary.
