Nonlinear policy rules and the identification and estimation of causal effects in a generalized Regression Kink Design
Card, David E.; Lee, David S.; Pei, Zhuan; Weber, Andrea - 2012
We consider nonparametric identification and estimation in a nonseparable model where a continuous regressor of interest is a known, deterministic, but kinked function of an observed assignment variable. This design arises in many institutional settings where a policy variable (such as weekly...

The matching method for treatment evaluation with selective participation and ineligibles
Costa Dias, Monica; Ichimura, Hidehiko; van den Berg, … - 2008
The matching method for treatment evaluation does not balance selective unobserved differences between treated and non …, provide a natural application. In an empirical analysis, we first examine the performance of matching versus regression …, where compliance is imperfect among the young. Adjusting the matching estimator for selectivity changes the results towards …
