This paper considers the first order large sample properties of the GEL class of estimators for models specified by non-smooth indicators. The GEL class includes a number of estimators recently introduced as alternatives to the efficient GMM estimator which may suffer from substantial biases in...

This paper studies the behaviour of the bias corrected LSDV estimator and GMM-based estimators in dynamic panel data … models with endogenous regressors. We obtain an expansion of the conditional bias of the LSDV estimator with the leading term … although the bias has similar structure whether or not the exogeneity assumption holds, the approximation technique that the …

This paper analyzes the second order bias of instrumental variables estimators for a dynamic panel model with fixed … effects. Three different methods of second order bias correction are considered. Simulation experiments show that these … is approximately achieving the minimal bias in a certain class of instrumental variables (IV) estimators. Simulation …

Measurement error in historical data distorts descriptive analyses based on binary classifications. Modern replications of deficiencies in retrospective CPI estimates for the 19th century show that measurement issues cause misclassification of inflationary and deflationary episodes. We therefore...

We re-examine the evidence on the new Phillips curve model of Gali and Gertler (Journal of Monetary Economics 1999) using the conditional score test of Kleibergen (Econometrica 2005),which is robust to weak identification. In contrast to earlier studies, we find that US postwar data are...

Many macroeconomic models involve hybrid equations, in which some variables are a function of both their lags and their expected future value. The hybrid "New Keynesian" Phillips Curve is a prominent expample. Estimates of such hybrid models have produced conflicting empirical results: Studies...
