This paper proposes a quantile regression estimator for a heterogeneous panel model with lagged dependent variables and interactive effects. The paper adopts the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach proposed by Pesaran (2006) and Chudik and Pesaran (2015) and demonstrates that the extension...

We provide a new framework to identify demand elasticities in markets where managers rely on algorithmic … identify demand elasticities across hotel room types and over time. We confirm these elasticity estimates with a difference …-function approach to two classic questions in the dynamic pricing literature: the evolution of price elasticity of demand over time as …

We propose a new instrument for estimating the price elasticity of gasoline demand that exploits systematic differences … response to an aggregate oil price shock. Time-varying estimates do not support the view that the gasoline demand elasticity … rose to about -0.2 in 2015-16, but has remained stable since 2016. Gasoline demand is more responsive in states with lower …

Structural econometric methods are often criticized for being sensitive to functional form assumptions. We study parametric estimators of the local average treatment effect (LATE) derived from a widely used class of latent threshold crossing models and show they yield LATE estimates...

An important issue in the analysis of cross-sectional dependence which has received renewed interest in the past few years is the need for a better understanding of the extent and nature of such cross dependencies. In this paper we focus on measures of cross-sectional dependence and how such...

This paper extends the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach developed by Pesaran (2006) to heterogeneous panel data models with lagged dependent variable and/or weakly exogenous regressors. We show that the CCE mean group estimator continues to be valid but the following two conditions must...
