This paper considers the nonparametric and semiparametric methods for estimating regression models with continuous endogenous regressors. We list a number of different generalizations of the linear structural equation model, and discuss how two common estimation approaches for linear...

Whitney Newey and James Powell, founding CeMMAP Fellows, wrote an influential paper on instrumental variable estimation of an additive error non-parametrically specified structural equation, presented at the December 1988 North American Winter Meetings of the Econometric Society. A version...

We study nonparametric estimation of density functions for undirected dyadic random variables (i.e., random variables de?ned for all unordered pairs of agents/nodes in a weighted network of order N). These random variables satisfy a local dependence property: any random variables in the network...

Let i = 1, . . . , N index a simple random sample of units drawn from some large population. For each unit we observe the vector of regressors Xi and, for each of the N (N - 1) ordered pairs of units, an outcome Yij . The outcomes Yij and Ykl are independent if their indices are disjoint, but...

We propose a generalization of the linear quantile regression model to accommodate possibilities afforded by panel data. Specifically, we extend the correlated random coefficients representation of linear quantile regression (e.g., Koenker, 2005; Section 2.6). We show that panel data allows the...

Strategic interaction parameters characterize the impact of actions of one economic agent on the payoff of another economic agent, and are of great interest in both theoretical and empirical work. In this paper, by considering econometric models involving simultaneous discrete systems of...

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...

We explore inference on regression coefficients in semiparametric multinomial response models. We consider cross-sectional, and both static and dynamic panel settings where we focus throughout on inference under sufficient conditions for point identification. The approach to identification uses...
