Nonparametric instrumental variable methods for dynamic treatment evaluation
Berg, Gerard J. van den; Bonev, Petyo; Mammen, Enno - 2016
We develop a nonparametric instrumental variable approach for the estimation of average treatment effects on hazard rates and conditional survival probabilities, without model structure. We derive constructive identification proofs for average treatment effects under noncompliance and dynamic...

Returns to education and wage equations
Pereira, Pedro Telhado; Martins, Pedro S. - 2001
We show why considering a number of education-dependent covariates in the wage equation decreases coefficient of education in the wage equation. We use a meta-analysis of results for Portugal to show, empirically, that this is the case. The coefficient decreases when we use covariates that can...

How much can we trust causal interpretations of fixed-effects estimators in the context of criminality?
Bjerk, David - 2009
Researchers are often interested in estimating the causal effect of some treatment on individual criminality. For example, two recent relatively prominent papers have attempted to estimate the respective direct effects of marriage and gang participation on individual criminal activity. One...
