Instrumental Variable Estimation in Binary Measurement Error Models
J. S. Buzas Department of Statistics North Carolina State University Raleigh, NC 27695 We describe an approach to instrumental variable estimation in binary regression measurement error models. The method entails constructing an approximate mean model for the binary response as a function of the measured predictor, the instrument and any covariates in the model. Estimates are obtained by exploi...
متن کاملEmpirical Example: Instrumental Variable Estimation
So on average, a woman with more than two kids works 6 weeks fewer than her counterpart with fewer than 2 kids. The result changes a little after we include age as the regressor. The question is, does this correlation imply causality? So the key regressor is morekids. The main concern is that morekids may be endogenous, i.e., correlated with the error term, due to simultaneity or omitted variab...
متن کاملShrinkage methods for instrumental variable estimation∗
This paper proposes shrinkage methods for instrumental variable estimation to solve the “many instruments” problem. Even though using a large number of instruments reduces the asymptotic variances of the estimators, it has been observed both in theoretical works and in practice that in finite samples the estimators may behave very poorly if the number of instruments is large. This problem can b...
متن کاملInstrumental Variable Estimation for Duration Data
In this article we develop an Instrumental Variable estimation procedure that corrects for possible endogeneity of a variable in a duration model. We assume a Generalized Accelerated Failure Time (GAFT) model. This model is based on transforming the durations and assuming a distribution for these transformed durations. The GAFT model encompasses two competing approaches to duration data; the (M...
متن کاملInstrumental variable estimation in a survival context.
Bias due to unobserved confounding can seldom be ruled out with certainty when estimating the causal effect of a nonrandomized treatment. The instrumental variable (IV) design offers, under certain assumptions, the opportunity to tame confounding bias, without directly observing all confounders. The IV approach is very well developed in the context of linear regression and also for certain gene...
