Overeducation Wage Penalty Among Ph.D. Holders : An Unconditional Quantile Regression Analysis on Italian Data
Gaeta, Giuseppe Lucio - 2018
The wage effect of job-education vertical mismatch (i.e. overeducation) has only recently been investigated in the case of Ph.D. holders. The existing contributions rely on OLS estimates that allow measuring the average effect of being mismatched at the mean of the conditional wages...

Testing the Correlated Random Coefficient Model
Heckman, James J. - 2009
The recent literature on instrumental variables (IV) features models in which agents sort into treatment status on the basis of gains from treatment as well as on baseline-pretreatment levels. Components of the gains known to the agents and acted on by them may not be known by the observing...

Regression Discontinuity Design with Continuous Measurement Error in the Running Variable
Davezies, Laurent - 2017
Since the late 90s, Regression Discontinuity (RD) designs have been widely used to estimate Local Average Treatment Effects (LATE). When the running variable is observed with continuous measurement error, identification fails. Assuming non-differential measurement error, we propose a consistent...

Correcting for Misclassied Binary Regressors Using Instrumental Variables
Haider, Steven - 2020
Estimators that exploit an instrumental variable to correct for misclassification in a binary regressor typically assume that the misclassification rates are invariant across all values of the instrument. We show that this assumption is invalid in routine empirical settings. We derive a new...

Nonseparable Sample Selection Models with Censored Selection Rules : An Application to Wage Decompositions
Fernández‐Val, Iván - 2018
We consider identification and estimation of nonseparable sample selection models with censored selection rules. We … conditions under which these objects are appropriate for the total population. We also present results regarding the estimation … strategies for estimation. We also provide the associated asymptotic theory. These strategies are illustrated in an empirical …

Heterogeneity in Schooling Rates of Return
Henderson, Daniel J. - 2011
This paper relaxes the assumption of homogeneous rates of return to schooling by employing nonparametric kernel regression. This approach allows us to examine the differences in rates of return to education both across and within groups. Similar to previous studies we find that on average blacks...
