Late Again with Defiers

Chaisemartin, Clément De; D'Haultfoeuille, Xavier - HAL - 2012

We show that the Wald statistic still identifies a causal effect if instrument monotonicity is replaced by a weaker condition, which states that the potential propensities to be treated with or without the instrument should have the same distribution, conditional on potential outcomes. This...

High-dimensional instrumental variables regression and confidence sets

Gautier, Eric; Tsybakov, Alexandre - HAL - 2014

We propose an instrumental variables method for inference in high-dimensional structural equations with endogenous regressors. The number of regressors K can be much larger than the sample size. A key ingredient is sparsity, i.e., the vector of coefficients has many zeros, or approximate...

ESTIMATING AGGLOMERATION ECONOMIES WITH HISTORY, GEOLOGY, AND WORKER EFFECTS

Combes, Pierre-Philippe; Duranton, Gilles; Gobillon, Laurent - HAL - 2008

Does productivity increase with density? We revisit the issue usingFrench wage and TFP data. To deal with the ‘endogenous quantity of labour' bias (i.e., urban agglomeration is consequence of high local productivity rather than a cause), we take an instrumental variable approach and introduce...
