Abstract

James Durbin joined the LSE Statistics Department in 1950 and remained there until he retired in 1988. He was a key figure in the development of econometrics and statistics. An early contribution, which came to be known as the Durbin–Watson test, was the first ‘diagnostic’ to be routinely applied in the analysis of regression models and it exerted a profound influence on the way that econometrics evolved. However, it was only one of a number of fundamental contributions made by Durbin. He was a Fellow of the British Academy and in 2008 he was awarded the Royal Statistical Society’s Guy Medal in Gold for a lifetime’s achievement in statistics.
