This paper extends Horowitz's smoothed maximum score estimator to discrete-time duration models. The estimator's consistency and asymptotic distribution are derived. Monte Carlo simulations using various data generating processes with varying error distributions and shapes of the hazard rate are...

We consider semiparametric estimation of discrete duration models whose hazard rate can be characterized as an unknown transformation of a parametric index of the observable covariates and elapsed spell length. The information matrix is derived. In the case of separable duration dependence the...

A new, direct method is developed for reducing, to an arbitrary order, the boundary bias of kernel density and density derivative estimators. The basic asymptotic properties of the estimators are derived. Simple examples are provided. A number of simulations are reported, which demonstrate the...

We examine bargaining legislation effects on the union and management reconciliation decisions following announcement of a strike using a bivariate duration model. The durations associated with the two groups are latent, and we argue that under weak assumptions the key parameters are identified....
