This paper proposes and implements simulated maximum likelihood estimation of bivariate count models with unrestricted correlation pattern of unobserved heterogeneity. The implementation incorporates both antithetic acceleration and adjustment for first-order simulation bias. Both the Monte...

We develop a specification and estimation framework for a class of nonlinear, non-normal microeconometric models of treatment and outcome with selection. A latent factor structure is used to accommodate selection into treatment and a simulated likelihood method is used for estimation. The...

This paper makes three contributions. Firstly, it uses copula functions to obtain a flexible bivariate parametric model for non-negative integer-valued data (counts). Secondly, it recovers the distribution of the difference in the two counts from a specified bivariate count distribution....
