We investigate the finite sample performance of several estimators proposed for the panel data Tobit regression model with individual effects, including Honor¨¦ estimator, Hansen¡¯s best two-step GMM estimator, the continuously updating GMM estimator, and the empirical likelihood estimator...

In this paper, we propose a locally linear estimation of a regression discontinuity model. The proposed estimator is applicable to evaluation of the effectiveness of the program treatment, and it improves upon the existing literature by providing not just the treatment effect at discontinuity...
