Instrumental Variables: An Econometrician's Perspective
I review recent work in the statistics literature on instrumental variables methods from an econometrics perspective. I discuss some of the older, economic, applications including supply and demand models and relate them to the recent applications in settings of randomized experiments with noncompliance. I discuss the assumptions underlying instrumental variables methods and in what settings th...
متن کاملThe Derivation of a Latent Threshold Instrumental Variables Model
Measuring the causal eeect of a treatment from observational data is often diicult because the treatment status of a subject may be confounded with non-randomized factors, such as those that aaect a subject's choice of treatment. An approach to remedying this problem is through the use of instrumental variables. We extend the instrumental variables framework proposed by Angrist, Imbens and Rubi...
متن کاملA general class of latent variable models for ordinal manifest variables with covariate effects on the manifest and latent variables.
Previous work on a general class of multidimensional latent variable models for analysing ordinal manifest variables is extended here to allow for direct covariate effects on the manifest ordinal variables and covariate effects on the latent variables. A full maximum likelihood estimation method is used to estimate all the model parameters simultaneously. Goodness-of-fit statistics and standard...
متن کاملInstrumental Variables Regression with Measurement Errors and Multicollinearity in Instruments
In this paper we obtain a consistent estimator when there exist some measurement errors and multicollinearity in the instrumental variables in a two stage least square estimation of parameters. We investigate the asymptotic distribution of the proposed estimator and discuss its properties using some theoretical proofs and a simulation study. A real numerical application is also provided for mor...
متن کاملInstrumental Variables Before and LATEr
The modern formulation of the instrumental variable methods initiated the valuable interactions between economics and statistics literatures of causal inference and fueled new innovations of the idea. It helped resolving the long-standing confusion that the statisticians used to have on the method, and encouraged the economists to rethink how to make use of instrumental variables in policy anal...
