Abstract We propose a new approach to statistical inference on parameters that depend on population parameters in a non-standard way. As examples we consider a parameter that is interval identified and a parameter that is the maximum (or minimum) of population parameters. In both examples we...

We study the asymptotic distribution of three-step estimators of a finite dimensional parameter vector where the second step consists of one or more nonparametric regressions on a regressor that is estimated in the first step. The first step estimator is either parametric or non-parametric....
