Weak instruments in instrumental variables regression: Theory and practice

I Andrews, JH Stock, L Sun - Annual Review of Economics, 2019 - annualreviews.org
When instruments are weakly correlated with endogenous regressors, conventional
methods for instrumental variables (IV) estimation and inference become unreliable. A large …

Instrumental variable quantile regression

V Chernozhukov, C Hansen… - Handbook of quantile …, 2017 - taylorfrancis.com
This chapter reviews the instrumental variable quantile regression model of Chernozhukov
and Hansen. It discusses the key conditions used for identification of structural quantile …

Smoothing quantile regressions

M Fernandes, E Guerre, E Horta - Journal of Business & Economic …, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
We propose to smooth the objective function, rather than only the indicator on the check
function, in a linear quantile regression context. Not only does the resulting smoothed …

Regression discontinuity applications with rounding errors in the running variable

Y Dong - Journal of Applied Econometrics, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Many empirical applications of regression discontinuity (RD) models use a running variable
that is rounded and hence discrete, eg age in years, or birth weight in ounces. This paper …

Identification in a generalization of bivariate probit models with dummy endogenous regressors

S Han, EJ Vytlacil - Journal of Econometrics, 2017 - Elsevier
This paper provides identification results for a class of models specified by a triangular
system of two equations with binary endogenous variables. The joint distribution of the latent …

A conditional linear combination test with many weak instruments

D Lim, W Wang, Y Zhang - Journal of Econometrics, 2024 - Elsevier
We consider a linear combination of jackknife Anderson-Rubin (AR), jackknife Lagrangian
multiplier (LM), and orthogonalized jackknife LM tests for inference in IV regressions with …

Conditional linear combination tests for weakly identified models

I Andrews - Econometrica, 2016 - Wiley Online Library
We introduce the class of conditional linear combination tests, which reject null hypotheses
concerning model parameters when a data‐dependent convex combination of two …

Identification‐and singularity‐robust inference for moment condition models

DWK Andrews, P Guggenberger - Quantitative Economics, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
This paper introduces a new identification‐and singularity‐robust conditional quasi‐
likelihood ratio (SR‐CQLR) test and a new identification‐and singularity‐robust Anderson …

Estimation and inference with a (nearly) singular Jacobian

S Han, A McCloskey - Quantitative Economics, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
This paper develops extremum estimation and inference results for nonlinear models with
very general forms of potential identification failure when the source of this identification …

[HTML][HTML] Empirical evidence on the Euler equation for consumption in the US

G Ascari, LM Magnusson, S Mavroeidis - Journal of Monetary Economics, 2021 - Elsevier
Recently developed econometric methods, that are robust to weak instruments and exploit
information in possible structural changes, are applied to study the Euler equation for …
