The control function approach (Heckman and Robb (1985)) in a system of linear simultaneous equations provides a convenient procedure to estimate one of the functions in the system using reduced form residuals from the other functions as additional regressors. The conditions on the structural...

We study nonparametric identification of single-agent discrete choice models for bundles (without requiring bundle …-specific prices) and of binary games of complete information. We show that these two models are quite similar from an identification …

The dispersion of individual returns to experience, often referred to as heterogeneity of income profiles (HIP), is a key parameter in empirical human capital models, in studies of life-cycle income inequality, and in heterogeneous agent models of life-cycle labor market dynamics. It is commonly...

This paper introduces a new identification- and singularity-robust conditional quasi-likelihood ratio (SR-CQLR) test … and a new identification- and singularity-robust Anderson and Rubin (1949) (SR-AR) test for linear and nonlinear moment … functions. The SR-CQLR test is shown to be asymptotically efficient in a GMM sense under strong and semi-strong identification …
