How sensitive are matching estimates of active labor market policy effects to typically unobserved confounders?
Tübbicke, Stefan - In: Journal for labour market research 57 (2023) 1, pp. 1-16
Using a rich and unique combined administrative-survey dataset, this paper explores how sensitive propensity score (PS) matching estimates of Active Labor Market Policies (ALMPs) based on the selection-on-observables assumption are to typically unobserved covariates. Using a sample of German...

A comparison of dynamic panel data estimators : Monte Carlo evidence and an application to the investment function
Behr, Andreas - 2003
estimator is biased in the context of dynamic estimation. The estimators taking into account the resulting bias can be grouped … broadly into the class of instrumental estimators and the class of direct bias corrected estimators. The simulation results … clearly favour the direct bias corrected estimators, especially the estimator proposed by Hansen (2001). The superiority of …

Give missings a chance : combined stochastic and rule-based approach to improve regression models with mismeasured monotonic covariates without side information
Dlugosz, Stephan - 2011
Register data are known for their large sample size and good data quality. The measurement accuracy of variables highly depends on their high importance for administrative processes. The education variable in the IAB employment sub-sample is an example for information that is gathered without a...

The returns to continuous training in Germany : new evidence from propensity score matching estimators
Muehler, Grit (contributor); Beckmann, Michael (contributor) - 2007
The present paper examines the wage effects of continuous training programs using individual-level data from the German Socio Economic Panel (GSOEP). In order to account for selectivity in training participation we estimate average treatment effects (ATE and ATT) of general and firm-specific...

Time distributed difference-in-differences estimates of return to training
Aistov, Andrej - In: Cogent economics & finance 5 (2017) 1, pp. 1-12
This work is devoted to estimating the individual return to worker’s professional training. The research is based on the personnel records of Russian metallurgical enterprise (2006–2010). The main factors that distinguish this paper from others are the following: (I) We focused on the...

Is Local Bias a Cross-Border Phenomenon? Evidence from Individual Investors’ International Asset Allocation
Baltzer, Markus - 2014

Our results confirm the presence of a cross-border local bias … a significantly lower foreign investment bias towards investment opportunities in that country and that this drop in …
