We develop a distribution regression model under endogenous sample selection. This model is a semi-parametric generalization of the Heckman selection model. It accommodates much richer effects of the covariates on outcome distribution and patterns of heterogeneity in the selection process, and...

We consider identification and estimation of nonseparable sample selection models with censored selection rules. We employ a control function approach and discuss different objects of interest based on (1) local effects conditional on the control function, and (2) global effects obtained from...

We present several modifications of the Poisson and negative binomial models for count data to accommodate cases in which the number of zeros in the data exceed what would typically be predicted by either model. The excess zeros can masquerade as overdispersion. We present a new test procedure...

In this paper, we provide an exact finite sample analysis of predictive regressions with overlapping long-horizon returns. This analysis allows us to evaluate the reliability of various asymptotic theories for predictive regressions in finite samples. In addition, our finite sample analysis...
