In this paper, we focus on a novel and potentially important aspect of the workfare policy in the Danish labor market … of workfare reform across different age groups as the exogenous variation. Second, we use a unique policy experiment that … recipients in Farum before and after 1987 with that of the rest of Denmark, we identify the effect of workfare on the crime rate …

How targeted is targeted tax relief? : evidence from the unemployment insurance youth hires program

Webb, Matthew; Sweetman, Arthur; Warman, Casey - 2012

Targeted employment subsidy programs are commonly employed by governments. This study examines one such initiative that rebated unemployment insurance premiums for net new insurable employment for youth aged 18 to 24. Using microdata from two datasets to estimate the labour market impacts of...

Sequential estimation of structural models with a fixed point constraint

Kasahara, Hiroyuki (contributor); … - 2008

This paper considers the estimation problem of structural models for which empirical restrictions are characterized by a fixed point constraint, such as structural dynamic discrete choice models or models of dynamic games. We analyze the conditions under which the nested pseudo-likelihood (NPL)...

Quasi-maximum likelihood estimation of heteroskedastic fractional time series models

Cavaliere, Giuseppe; Nielsen, Morten Ørregaard; … - 2014

In a recent paper Hualde and Robinson (2011) establish consistency and asymptotic normality for conditional sum-of-squares estimators, which are equivalent to conditional quasi-maximum likelihood estimators, in parametric fractional time series models driven by conditionally homoskedastic...

A unified framework for dynamic treatment effect estimation in interactive fixed effect models

Brown, Nicholas; Butts, Kyle - 2022

We present a unifying identification strategy of dynamic average treatment effect parameters for staggered interventions when parallel trends are valid only after controlling for interactive fixed effects. This setting nests the usual parallel trends assumption, but allows treated units to have...
