Bai (2009) proposes a recursive least-squares estimation method for large panel data models with unobservable interactive fixed effects, but the impact of recursion on the asymptotic properties of the least-squares estimators is not taken into account. In this paper, we extend Bai (2009) by...

This paper investigates returns to women's education by applying an optimal IV selection approach, post-Lasso IV estimation, which improves the first-stage predictive relationship between an endogenous regressor and instruments. Using the 2010 American Community Survey, we find that an extra...
