This paper considers the first order large sample properties of the GEL class of estimators for models specified by non-smooth indicators. The GEL class includes a number of estimators recently introduced as alternatives to the efficient GMM estimator which may suffer from substantial biases in...

We consider the bias of the 2SLS estimator in the linear instrumental vari-ables regression with one endogenous … regressor only. By using asymptotic expansion techniques we approximate 2SLS coefficient estimation bias under various scenarios … regarding the number and strength of instruments.The resulting approximation encompasses existing bias approximations, which are …

This paper compares the economic questions addressed by instrumental variables estimators with those addressed by structural approaches. We discuss Marschak's Maxim: estimators should be selected on the basis of their ability to answer well-posed economic problems with minimal assumptions. A key...

This paper studies a simple dynamic panel linear regression model with interactive fixed effects in which the variable of interest is measured with error. To estimate the dynamic coefficient, we consider the least-squares minimum distance (LS-MD) estimation method. -- dynamic panel ; interactive...
