Brodeur, Abel; Lé, Mathias; Sangnier, Marc; … - Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) - 2013

Journals favor rejection of the null hypothesis. This selection upon tests may distort the behavior of researchers. Using 50,000 tests published between 2005 and 2011 in the AER, JPE, and QJE, we identify a residual in the distribution of tests that cannot be explained by selection. The...

Methods Matter : P-Hacking and Causal Inference in Economics

Brodeur, Abel - 2018

The economics 'credibility revolution' has promoted the identification of causal relationships using difference-in-differences (DID), instrumental variables (IV), randomized control trials (RCT) and regression discontinuity design (RDD) methods. The extent to which a reader should trust claims...

Double conditioning : the hidden connection between Bayesian and classical statistics

Manganelli, Simone - 2023

Bayesian decisions are observationally identical to decisions with judgment. Decisions with judgment test whether a judgmental decision is optimal and, in case of rejection, move to the closest boundary of the confidence interval, for a given confidence level. The resulting decisions condition...

Statistical decision functions with judgment

Manganelli, Simone - 2021

A decision maker tests whether the gradient of the loss function evaluated at a judgmental decision is zero. If the test does not reject, the action is the judgmental decision. If the test rejects, the action sets the gradient equal to the boundary of the rejection region. This statistical...

Fully modified least squares estimation and inference for systems of cointegrating polynomial regressions

Wagner, Martin - 2023

We consider fully modified least squares estimation for systems of cointegrating polynomial regressions, i. e., systems … estimation coincide - for any regular weighting matrix - without restrictions on the parameters and with the same regressors in …

Testing the "separability" condition in two-stage nonparametric models of production

Daraio, Cinzia; Simar, Léopold; Wilson, Paul W. - 2015

Simar and Wilson (J. Econometrics, 2007) provided a statistical model that can rationalize two-stage estimation of … technical efficiency in nonparametric settings. Two-stage estimation has been widely used, but requires a strong assumption: the …-stage estimation, calling into question results that appear in hundreds of papers that have been published in recent years. …
