This paper develops linear estimators for structural and causal parameters in nonparametric,nonseparable models using panel data. These models incorporate unobserved, time-varying, individual heterogeneity, which may be correlated with the regressors. Estimation is based on an approximation of...

Given the ubiquitous presence of endogenous regressors and the challenges in finding good instruments to overcome the endogeneity problem, a forefront of recent research is the development and application of endogeneity correction methods without requiring instruments. In this article, we...

Binscatter is very popular in applied microeconomics. It provides a flexible, yet parsimonious way of visualizing and summarizing "big data" in regression settings, and it is often used for informal testing of substantive hypotheses such as linearity or monotonicity of the regression function....

We develop a practical way of addressing the Errors-In-Variables (EIV) problem in the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) framework. We focus on the settings in which the variance of the measurement errors is a fraction of that of the mismeasured variables, which is typical for empirical...

We study the informational content of factor structures in discrete triangular systems. Factor structures have been employed in a variety of settings in cross sectional and panel data models, and in this paper we formally quantify their identifying power in a bivariate system often employed in...
