This paper addresses the estimation of a semiparametric sample selection index model where both the selection rule and the outcome variable are binary. Since the marginal effects are often of primary interest and are difficult to recover in a semiparametric setting, we develop estimators for...

We conduct an experiment to (i) measure the structure of preferences over lotteries and (ii) test for stability of the probability transformation functions over different choice sets. The design is based on manipulations of the 'probability triangle' A disaggregated nonparametric analysis in...

We have used a proprietary data set of newly hired semi-skilled production workers at one location of a large unionized firm to investigate several issues in labor economics. This data set is unique in several respects: the workers in our sample faced the same wage schedules, had the same...
