Robust small sample accurate inference in moment condition models
Procedures based on the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) (Hansen, 1982) are basic tools in modern econometrics. In most cases, the theory available for making inference with these procedures is based on first order asymptotic theory. It is well-known that the (first order) asymptotic distribution does not provide accurate p-values and confidence intervals in moderate to small samples. Moreov...
متن کاملGel Criteria for Moment Condition Models
GEL methods which generalize and extend previous contributions are defined and analysed for moment condition models specified in terms of weakly dependent data. These procedures offer alternative one-step estimators and tests that are asymptotically equivalent to their efficient two-step GMM counterparts. The basis for GEL estimation is via a smoothed version of the moment indicators using kern...
متن کاملIdentification-robust inference for endogeneity parameters in linear structural models
We provide a generalization of the Anderson-Rubin (AR) procedure for inference on parameters which represent the dependence between possibly endogenous explanatory variables and disturbances in a linear structural equation (endogeneity parameters). We focus on second-order dependence and stress the distinction between regression and covariance endogeneity parameters. Such parameters have intrin...
متن کاملRobust inference in nonlinear models with mixed identification strength
The paper studies inference in regression models composed of nonlinear functions with unknown transformation parameters and loading coefficients that measure the importance of each component. In these models, non-identification and weak identification present in multiple parts of the parameter space, resulting in mixed identification strength for different unknown parameters. This paper propose...
متن کاملSemiparametric Estimation and Inference Using Doubly Robust Moment Conditions
We study semiparametric two-step estimators which have the same structure as parametric doubly robust estimators in their second step, but retain a fully nonparametric specification in the first step. Such estimators exist in many economic applications, including a wide range of missing data and treatment effect models. We show that these estimators are √ n-consistent and asymptotically normal ...
