We show that the Wald statistic still identifies a causal effect if instrument monotonicity is replaced by a weaker condition, which states that the potential propensities to be treated with or without the instrument should have the same distribution, conditional on potential outcomes. This...

Les régressions quantiles sont des outils statistiques dont l'objet est de décrire l'impact de variables explicatives sur une variable d'intérêt. Elles permettent une description plus riche que les régressions linéaires classiques, puisqu'elles s'intéressent à l'ensemble de la...

The changes-in-changes model extends the widely used difference-in-differences to situations where outcomes may evolve heterogeneously. Contrary to difference-in-differences, this model is invariant to the scaling of the outcome. This paper develops an instrumental variable changes-in-changes...

It is often believed that without instrument, endogenous sample selection models are identified only if a covariate with a large support is available (see, e.g., Chamberlain, 1986, and Lewbel, 2007). We propose a new identification strategy mainly based on the condition that the selection...

This paper considers the identification and estimation of an extension of Roy’s model (1951) of sectoral choice, which includes a non-pecuniary component in the selection equation and allows for uncertainty on potential earnings. We focus on the identification of the non-pecuniary component,...

At the beginning of 2008 was introduced in France a feebate on the purchase of new cars called the Bonus/Malus. Since January 2008, less polluting cars benefit from a price reduction of up to 1,000 euros, while the most polluting ones are subject to a taxation of 2,600 euros. We estimate the...
