This article reviews recent advances in fixed effect estimation of panel data models for long panels, where the number of time periods is relatively large. We focus on semiparametric models with unobserved individual and time effects, where the distribution of the outcome variable conditional on...

Fixed e®ects estimates of structural parameters in nonlinear panel models can be severely biased due to the incidental parameters problem. In this paper I show that the most important com- ponent of this incidental parameters bias for probit ¯xed e®ects estimators of index coe±cients is...

In random coefficients linear IV models, fixed effects averages of the random coefficients are biased in short panels due to the finite-sample bias of IV estimators. This paper introduces a new class of bias-corrected fixed effects estimators for panel data models where the response to the...

This paper gives identification and estimation results for quantile and average effects in nonseparable panel models, when the distribution of period specific disturbances does not vary over time. Bounds are given for interesting effects with discrete regressors that are strictly exogenous or...

This paper introduces bias-corrected estimators for nonlinear panel data models with both time invariant and time varying heterogeneity. These include limited dependent variable models with both unobserved individual effects and endogenous explanatory variables, and sample selection models with...

Fixed effects estimators of nonlinear panel models can be severely biased due to the incidental parameters problem. In this paper I find that the most important component of this incidental parameters bias for probit fixed effects estimators of index coefficients is proportional to the true...

This paper develops a covariate-based approach to the external validity of instrumental variables (IV) estimates. Assuming that differences in observed complier characteristics are what make IV estimates differ from one another and from parameters like the effect of treatment on the treated, we...
