Currently available asymptotic results in the literature suggest that matching estimators have higher variance than reweighting estimators. The extant literature comparing the finite sample properties of matching to specific reweighting estimators, however, has concluded that reweighting...

In this paper nonparametric instrumental variable estimation of local average treatment effects (LATE) is extended to … incorporate confounding covariates. Estimation of local average treatment effects is appealing since their identification relies … variable models. Including covariates in the estimation of LATE is necessary when the instrumental variable itself is …

We analyze four methods to measure unexplained gaps in mean outcomes: three decompositions based on the seminal work of Oaxaca (1973) and Blinder (1973) and an approach involving a seemingly naive regression that includes a group indicator variable. Our analysis yields two principal findings. We...
