Truncation or censoring of the response variable in a regression model is a problem in many applications, e.g. when the response is insurance claims or the durations of unemployment spells. We introduce a local polynomial regression estimator which can deal with such truncated or censored...

Evaluation studies aim to provide answers to important questions like: How does this program or policy intervention affect the outcome variables of interest? In order to answer such questions, using the traditional statistical evaluation (or causal inference) methods, some conditions must be...

The calibration approach is suggested in the literature for estimation in sample surveys under non-response given access to suitable auxiliary information. However, missing values in auxiliary information come up as a thorny but realistic problem. This paper considers the consistency of the...

This paper includes a simulation study on the bias and MSE properties of a two-step probit model estimator for handling missing values in covariates by conditional imputation. In one smaller simulation it is compared with an asymptotically efficient estimator and in one larger it is compared...

This article investigates how the Swedish population values a reduction in the number of suicides in relation to other life-saving interventions within the health care sector. An online discrete choice experiment was conducted with a sample of 1000 Swedish members of the web panel Userneeds to...
