We estimate a multivariate autoregressive fractionally-integrated moving-average (ARFIMA) model to illustrate a cointegration testing methodology based on joint estimates of the fractional orders of integration of a cointegrating vector and its parent series. Although previous work has...

The fact that weak instruments lead to spurious inference is now widely recognized. In this paper we ask whether spurious inference occurs more generally in weakly identified models. To distinguish between models where spurious inference will occur from those where it does not, we introduce the...

We provide general results for the asymptotic variance of regression coefficients computedfrom a sample drawn from a finite population. We encompass the potentialoutcomes and classic regression frameworks allowing for both heterogeneous treatmenteffects and random-across-resampling shocks....
