ivcrc: An instrumental-variables estimator for the correlated random-coefficients model

چکیده
We discuss the ivcrc command, which implements an instrumental-variables (IV) estimator for linear correlated random-coefficients model. The model is a natural generalization of standard IV that allows endogenous, multivalued treatments and unobserved heterogeneity in treatment effects. implemented by uses recent semiparametric identification results allow flexible functional forms permit instruments may be binary, discrete, or continuous. command also estimation varying-coefficient regressions, are closely related structure to proposed estimator. illustrate use estimating returns education National Longitudinal Survey Young Men.

An instrumental variable random-coefficients model for binary outcomes
In this paper, we study a random-coefficients model for a binary outcome. We allow for the possibility that some or even all of the explanatory variables are arbitrarily correlated with the random coefficients, thus permitting endogeneity. We assume the existence of observed instrumental variables Z that are jointly independent with the random coefficients, although we place no structure on the...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis for Multisite Trials Using Instrumental Variables With Random Coefficients
Multisite trials can clarify the average impact of a new program and the heterogeneity of impacts across sites. Unfortunately, in many applications, compliance with treatment assignment is imperfect. For these applications, we propose an instrumental variable (IV) model with person-specific and site-specific random coefficients. Site-specific IV coefficients can be interpreted as site-average e...
متن کاملA natural robustification of the ordinary instrumental variables estimator.
Instrumental variables estimators are designed to provide consistent parameter estimates for linear regression models when some covariates are correlated with the error term. We propose a new robust instrumental variables estimator (RIV) which is a natural robustification of the ordinary instrumental variables estimator (OIV). Specifically, we construct RIV using a robust multivariate location ...
متن کاملA simple estimator for the distribution of random coefficients
We propose a simple mixtures estimator for recovering the joint distribution of parameter heterogeneity in economic models, such as the random coefficients logit. The estimator is based on linear regression subject to linear inequality constraints, and is robust, easy to program, and computationally attractive compared to alternative estimators for random coefficient models. For complex structu...
متن کاملA Simple Nonparametric Estimator for the Distribution of Random Coefficients
We propose a simple nonparametric mixtures estimator for recovering the joint distribution of parameter heterogeneity in economic models, such as the random coefficients logit. The estimator is based on linear regression subject to linear inequality constraints, and is robust, easy to program, and computationally attractive compared to alternative estimators for random coefficient models. For c...
