The Effect of Maternal Drug Use on Birth Weight: Measurement Error in Binary Variables.
Kaestner, Robert; Joyce, Theodore; Wehbeh, Hassan - In: Economic Inquiry 34 (1996) 4, pp. 617-29
The authors develop a method to correct for nonrandom measurement error in a binary indicator of illicit drugs. Their results suggest that estimates of the effect of self-reported prenatal drug use on birth weight are biased upwards by measurement error--a finding contrary to predictions of a...
