A Sharp Test for the Judge Leniency Design

Coulibaly, Mohamed; Hsu, Yu-Chin; Mourifié, Ismael; … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2024

We propose a new specification test to assess the validity of the judge leniency design. We characterize a set of sharp testable implications, which exploit all the relevant information in the observed data distribution to detect violations of the judge leniency design assumptions. The proposed...

A graphical approximation to generalization : definitions and diagrams

Martel García, Fernando; Wantchekon, Leonard - 2013

The fundamental problem of external validity is not to generalize from one experiment, so much as to experimentally test generalizable theories. That is, theories that explain the systematic variation of causal effects across contexts. Here we show how the graphical language of causal diagrams...

The Long-Run Causal Relationship between Transport Energy Consumption and GDP : Evidence from Heterogeneous Panel Methods Robust to Cross-Sectional Dependence

Liddle, Brant - 2014

This paper analyzes data from 107 countries, spanning 1971-2009, and grouped into three income-based panels to determine the direction and sign of panel long-run causality between transport energy consumption per capita and real GDP per capita. The methods employed address heterogeneity and (at...

Learning Causal Relations in Multivariate Time Series Data

Chen, Pu; Chihying, Hsiao - In: Economics: The Open-Access, Open-Assessment E-Journal 1 (2007) 2007-11, pp. 1-43

Applying a probabilistic causal approach, we define a class of time series causal models (TSCM) based on stationary Bayesian networks. A TSCM can be seen as a structural VAR identified by the causal relations among the variables. We classify TSCMs into observationally equivalent classes by...

Desarrollo del mercado accionario y crecimiento económico: Alguna evidencia para la Argentina

Lanteri, Luis - 2013

This paper examines the relationship between stock market development and economic growth in case of Argentina's economy. Apply Granger causality and exogeneity tests based on VEC (vector error correction) models with monthly data covering the period 1993:1-2010:8. The results show that the...

Identification and estimation of distributional impacts of interventions using changes in inequality measures

Firpo, Sérgio Pinheiro - 2010

This paper presents semiparametric estimators of distributional impacts of interventions (treatment) when selection to the program is based on observable characteristics. Distributional impacts of a treatment are calculated as differences in inequality measures of the potential outcomes of...

On nonparametric identification of treatment effects in duration models

Johansson, Per-Olov; Lee, Myoung-jae - 2016

We show that the main nonparametric identification finding of Abbring and Van den Berg (2003b, Econometrica) for the effect of a timing-chosen treatment on an event duration of interest does not hold. The main problem is that the identification is based on the competing-risks identification...
