Estimating the Veteran Effect with Endogenous Schooling When Instruments are Potentially Weak

Chaudhuri, Saraswata - 2009

Instrumental variables estimates of the effect of military service on subsequent civilian earnings either omit schooling or treat it as exogenous. In a more general setting that also allows for the treatment of schooling as endogenous, we estimate the veteran effect for men who were born between...

Additive Kernel Estimates of Returns to Schooling

Ozabaci, Deniz - 2014

In this paper, we employ a partially linear nonparametric additive regression estimator, with recent U.S. Current Population Survey data, to analyze returns to schooling. Similar to previous research, we find that blacks and Hispanics have higher rates of return on average. However, for married...

Imposing Economic Constraints in Nonparametric Regression : Survey, Implementation and Extension

Henderson, Daniel J. - 2009

Economic conditions such as convexity, homogeneity, homotheticity, and monotonicity are all important assumptions or consequences of assumptions of economic functionals to be estimated. Recent research has seen a renewed interest in imposing constraints in nonparametric regression. We survey the...
