Replication to assess statistical adequacy
Owen, Dorian - 2018
"Statistical adequacy" is an important prerequisite for securing reliable inference in empirical modelling. This paper … argues for more emphasis on replication that specifically assesses whether the results reported in empirical studies are … diagnostic tests for misspecification. A replication plan is briefly outlined to illustrate what this would involve in practice …

Spotlight on researcher decisions: Infrastructure evaluation, instrumental variables, and specification screening
Ankel-Peters, Jörg; Bensch, Gunther; Vance, Colin - 2023
This paper revisits the instrumental variable (IV) approach in Lipscomb et al. (2013, 2021, LMB) to study the impacts of electrification. We first make corrections to the construction of the dataset, including the modelled IV. Revised estimates on main outcomes and mechanisms are statistically...

Effects of rural electrification on employment : a comment on Dinkelman (2011)
Bensch, Gunther; Gotz, Gunnar; Peters, Jörg - 2020
This paper replicates and extends the seminal paper by Dinkelman (2011) on the impacts of electrification on female employment. We revisit the validity of the identification strategy that uses the land gradient as an instrumental variable (IV). Our robustness checks cast doubt on the exclusion...
