Multinomial choice models are fundamental for empirical modeling of economic choices among discrete alternatives. We analyze identification of binary and multinomial choice models when the choice utilities are nonseparable in observed attributes and multidimensional unobserved heterogeneity with...

This paper introduces two classes of semiparametric triangular systems with nonadditively separable unobserved heterogeneity. They are based on distribution and quantile regression modeling of the reduced-form conditional distributions of the endogenous variables. We show that these models are...

Triangular systems with nonadditively separable unobserved heterogeneity provide a theoretically appealing framework for the modeling of complex structural relationships. However, they are not commonly used in practice due to the need for exogenous variables with large support for...

In this paper, we develop a new censored quantile instrumental variable (CQIV)estimator and describe its properties and computation. The CQIV estimator combines Powell(1986) censored quantile regression (CQR) to deal semiparametrically with censoring, with a control variable approach to...
