This paper presents a new data-driven bandwidth selector compatible with the small bandwidth asymptotics developed in Cattaneo, Crump, and Jansson (2009) for density-weighted average derivatives. The new bandwidth selector is of the plug-in variety, and is obtained based on a mean squared error...

Employing the "small bandwidth" asymptotic framework of Cattaneo, Crump, and Jansson (2009), this paper studies the properties of a variety of bootstrap-based inference procedures associated with the kernel-based density-weighted averaged derivative estimator proposed by Powell, Stock, and...

Employing the “small-bandwidth” asymptotic framework of Cattaneo, Crump, and Jansson (2009), this paper studies the properties of several bootstrap-based inference procedures associated with a kernel-based estimator of density-weighted average derivatives proposed by Powell, Stock, and...

Many empirical studies estimate the structural effect of some variable on an outcome of interest while allowing for many covariates. We present inference methods that account for many covariates. The methods are based on asymptotics where the number of covariates grows as fast as the sample...

The linear regression model is widely used in empirical work in Economics. Researchers often include many covariates in their linear model specification in an attempt to control for confounders. We give inference methods that allow for many covariates and heteroskedasticity. Our results are...
