When evaluating partial effects, it is important to distinguish between structural endogeneity and measurement errors. In… Continue reading.
Many studies in economics use instruments or treatments which combine a set of exogenous shocks with… Continue reading.
Following the seminal paper by Altonji and Segal (1996), empirical studies have widely embraced equal or… Continue reading.
We consider estimation and inference for a regression coefficient in panels with interactive fixed effects (i.e.,… Continue reading.
This paper introduces a simulation algorithm for evaluating the log-likelihood function of a large supermodular binary-action… Continue reading.
This paper studies identification in a binary choice panel data model with choice probabilities depending on… Continue reading.
We study identification in a binary choice panel data model with a single predetermined binary covariate… Continue reading.
Beta-sorted portfolios — portfolios comprised of assets with similar covariation to selected risk factors — are… Continue reading.
We study the impact of classroom rank on children’s learning using a unique experiment from Ecuador…. Continue reading.
