Simulation and Estimation of Nonaddative Hedonic Models

Heckman, James J. - 2003

Making use of restrictions imposed by equilibrium, theoretical progress has been made on the nonparametric and semiparametric estimation and identification of scalar additive hedonic models (Ekeland, Heckman, and Nesheim, 2002) and scalar nonadditive hedonic models (Heckman, Matzkin, and...

A Note on Adapting Propensity Score Matching and Selection Models to Choice Based Samples

Heckman, James J. - 2009

The probability of selection into treatment plays an important role in matching and selection models. However, this … note establishes that the selection and matching procedures can be implemented using propensity scores fit on choice …

Instrumental Variables, Selection Models, and Tight Bounds on the Average Treatment Effect

Heckman, James J. - 2000

This paper exposits and relates two distinct approaches to bounding the average treatment effect. One approach, based on instrumental variables, is due to Manski (1990, 1994), who derives tight bounds on the average treatment effect under a mean independence form of the instrumental variables...

The Identification and Economic Content of Ordered Choice Models with Stochastic Thresholds

Cunha, Flavio - 2007

This paper extends the widely used ordered choice model by introducing stochastic thresholds and interval-specific outcomes. The model can be interpreted as a generalization of the GAFT (MPH) framework for discrete duration data that jointly models durations and outcomes associated with...

Dealing with Imperfect Randomization : Inference for the HighScope Perry Preschool Program

Heckman, James J.; Pinto, Rodrigo; Shaikh, Azeem M. - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2023

This paper considers the problem of making inferences about the effects of a program on multiple outcomes when the assignment of treatment status is imperfectly randomized. By imperfect randomization we mean that treatment status is reassigned after an initial randomization on the basis of...

Labor Supply Estimates For Public Policy Evaluation

Borjas, George J. - 1978

In recent years, the study of labor supply has occupied the attention of a large number of economists. With the growth in interest in the topic and with the inevitable diversity of economic models and statistical methods proposed by new entrants in the field, the literature has developed its own...

Nonparametric Identification and Estimation of Nonadditive Hedonic Models

Heckman, James J. - 2009

This paper studies the identification and estimation of preferences and technologies in equilibrium hedonic models. In it, we identify nonparametric structural relationships with nonadditive heterogeneity. We determine what features of hedonic models can be identified from equilibrium...

Dynamic Discrete Choice and Dynamic Treatment Effects

Heckman, James J. - 2005

This paper considers semiparametric identification of structural dynamic discrete choice models and models for dynamic treatment effects. Time to treatment and counterfactual outcomes associated with treatment times are jointly analyzed. We examine the implicit assumptions of the dynamic...

Causality and Econometrics

Heckman, James J.; Pinto, Rodrigo - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2022

This paper examines the econometric causal model for policy analysis developed by the seminal ideas of Ragnar Frisch and Trygve Haavelmo. We compare the econometric causal model with two popular causal frameworks: Neyman-Holland causal model and the do-calculus. The Neyman-Holland causal model...
