In this paper we will present recent work on a new unit-level small area methodology that can be used with continuous and discrete outcomes. The proposed method is based on constructing a model-based estimator of the distribution function by using a nested-error regression model for the...

We propose robust methods for inference on the effect of a treatment variable on a scalar outcome in the presence of very many controls. Our setting is a partially linear model with possibly non-Gaussian and heteroscedastic disturbances where the number of controls may be much larger than the...

In this article, we review quantile models with endogeneity. We focus on models that achieve indentification through the use of instrumental variables and discuss conditions under which partial and point identification are obtained. We discuss key conditions, which include monotonicity and...
