In this paper we perform inference on the effect of a treatment on survival times in studies where the treatment assignment is not randomized and the assignment time is not known in advance. Two such studies are discussed: a heart transplant program and a study of Swedish unemployed eligible for...

We introduce a framework to test for exogeneity of a variable in a regression based on cross-sectional data. By sorting data with respect to a function (sorting score) of known exogeneous variables it is possible to utilize a battery of tools originally develped to detecting model...
