Robust inference for threshold regression models

J Hidalgo, J Lee, MH Seo - Journal of Econometrics, 2019 - Elsevier
This paper considers robust inference in threshold regression models when the practitioners
do not know whether at the threshold point the true specification has a kink or a jump …

Examining the impact of group size on the treatment intensity of a tier 2 mathematics intervention within a systematic framework of replication

CT Doabler, B Clarke, D Kosty… - Journal of Learning …, 2019 - journals.sagepub.com
Group size and treatment intensity are understudied topics in mathematics intervention
research. This study examined whether the treatment intensity and overall intervention …

Specification tests for the propensity score

PHC Sant'Anna, X Song - Journal of Econometrics, 2019 - Elsevier
This paper proposes new nonparametric diagnostic tools to assess the asymptotic validity of
different treatment effects estimators that rely on the correct specification of the propensity …

Common threshold in quantile regressions with an application to pricing for reputation

L Su, P Xu - Econometric Reviews, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
The paper develops a systematic estimation and inference procedure for quantile regression
models where there may exist a common threshold effect across different quantile indices …

An application niche for finite mixture models in forest resource surveys

S Magnussen, E Næsset… - Canadian Journal of …, 2019 - cdnsciencepub.com
We propose design-based inference with finite mixture models (FMM) in settings where
heterogeneity cannot be addressed by more conventional modelling. In FMM, a model is …

Threshold Regression with Nonparametric Sample Splitting

Y Lee, Y Wang - arXiv preprint arXiv:1905.13140, 2019 - arxiv.org
This paper develops a threshold regression model where an unknown relationship between
two variables nonparametrically determines the threshold. We allow the observations to be …

M-estimators of U-processes with a change-point due to a covariate threshold

L Tan, Y Zhang - Journal of Business & Economic Statistics, 2019 - Taylor & Francis
Economic theory often predicts a “tipping point” effect due to multiple equilibria. Linear
threshold regressions estimate the “tipping point” by assuming at the same time that the …

Estimating Restricted Common Structural Changes for Panel Data

L Zhang, Z Zhu - Acta Mathematicae Applicatae Sinica, English Series, 2019 - Springer
We consider estimating multiple structural changes occurring at unknown common dates in
a panel data regression model with restrictions imposed on the coefficients. We establish the …

Operational risk, uncertainty, and the economy: a smooth transition extreme value approach

J Hambuckers, T Kneib - 2019 - orbi.uliege.be
We study the link between the distribution of extreme operational losses and the economic
context, a fundamental task to compute adequate risk measures over time. In particular, we …
