This paper proposes a test for missing at random (MAR). The MAR assumption is shown to be testable given instrumental variables which are independent of response given potential outcomes. A nonparametric testing procedure based on integrated squared distance is proposed. The statistic’s...

We establish sufficient conditions on durations that are stationary with finite variance and memory parameter d 2 [0; 1=2) to ensure that the corresponding counting process N(t) satisfies VarN(t) raquo; Ct2d+1 (C gt; 0) as t ! 1, with the same memory parameter d 2 [0; 1=2) that was assumed for the...
