      abstract = {Business establishment growth in the Appalachian region  (2000–2007) was regressed on industry sector composition  controlling for demographic, physical, and economic  determinants. We test the hypothesis that local response to  growth determinants is geographically heterogeneous  using
Smooth Transition spatial process models. This class  of models exhibiting endogenous regime switching behavior  provides another tool for exploring the spatially  heterogeneous effects of local determinants on economic  growth.},
