Efficient probit estimation with partially missing covariates

Conniffe, Denis; O'Neill, Donal - 2009

A common approach to dealing with missing data is to estimate the model on the common subset of data, by necessity throwing away potentially useful data. We derive a new probit type estimator for models with missing covariate data where the dependent variable is binary. For the benchmark case of...

A note on GMM-estimation of probit models with endogenous regressors

Wilde, Joachim - 2005

Dagenais (1999) and Lucchetti (2002) have demonstrated that the naive GMM estimator of Grogger (1990) for the probit model with an endogenous regressor is not consistent. This paper completes their discussion by explaining the reason for the inconsistency and presenting a natural solution....

Determinants and Costs of Current Account Reversals under Heterogeneity and Serial Correlation

Aßmann, Christian - 2007

Recent empirical evidence suggests that reversing current account balances imply costly adjustment processes leading to reduced economic growth. Using large panel data sets to analyze determinants and costs of reversals asks for controls of heterogeneity among countries. This paper contributes a...

A control function approach to estimating dynamic probit models with endogenous regressors, with an application to the study of poverty persistence in China

Giles, John T.; Murtazashvili, Irina - 2012

This paper proposes a parametric approach to estimating a dynamic binary response panel data model that allows for endogenous contemporaneous regressors. Such a model is of particular value for settings in which one wants to estimate the effects of an endogenous treatment on a binary outcome. In...

A comparison of dynamic panel data estimators: Monte Carlo evidence and an application to the investment function

Behr, Andreas - 2003

estimator is biased in the context of dynamic estimation. The estimators taking into account the resulting bias can be grouped … broadly into the class of instrumental estimators and the class of direct bias corrected estimators. The simulation results … clearly favour the direct bias corrected estimators, especially the estimator proposed by Hansen (2001). The superiority of …
