The paper considers the estimation of the coefficients of a single equation in the presence of dummy intruments. We derive pseudo ML and GMM estimators based on moment restrictions induced either by the structural form or by the reduced form of the model. The performance of the estimators is...

We propose a novel statistic for testing the structural parameters in Instrumental Variables Regression. The statistic is straightforward to compute and has a limiting distribution that is pivotal with a degrees of freedom parameter that is equal to the number of tested parameters. It therefore...

We obtain invariant expressions for prior probabilities and priors onthe parameters of nested regression models that are induced by aprior on the parameters of an encompassing linear regression model.The invariance is with respect to specifications that satisfy anecessary set of assumptions....
