Estimation of linear dynamic panel data models with time-invariant regressors : conference paper

Kripfganz, Sebastian; Schwarz, Claudia - 2013 - This version: May 6, 2013

This paper considers estimation methods and inference for linear dynamic panel data models with unit …-invariant variables in a dynamic version of the Hausman and Taylor (1981) model. We propose a two-stage estimation procedure to identify … errors are adjusted to take into account the first-stage estimation uncertainty. As potential first-stage estimators we …

Enrolments in higher education in West Germany : the impact of social background, labour market returns and educational funding

Lauer, Charlotte - 2000

This paper analyses the determinants of participation in higher education in West Germany. In particular, the role of social origin as well as of expectations regarding the labour market outcome of a higher education degree and of public educational policy are examined. The estimations are based...

The returns to elite college education : a quasi-experimental analysis

Anelli, Massimo - 2016

I take advantage of a sharp discontinuity in the probability of admission to an elite university at the admission score threshold, to estimate causal returns to college education quality. I use a newly constructed dataset, which combines individual administrative records about high school,...

School quality beyond test scores : the role of schools in shaping educational outcomes

Loviglio, Annalisa - 2023

I study how schools impact student performance and educational attainment throughout secondary education, and show that school quality cannot be easily captured by any type of rankings because students with differing characteristics and abilities benefit from different school inputs. To do so, I...

Estimation of Dynamic Discrete Choice Models by Maximum Likelihood and the Simulated Method of Moments

Eisenhauer, Phillipp; Heckman, James J.; Mosso, Stefano - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2014

We compare the performance of maximum likelihood (ML) and simulated method of moments (SMM) estimation for dynamic …

The role of time preferences in educational decision making

Kemptner, Daniel; Tolan, Songül - 2016

We analyze the implication of time-inconsistent preferences in educational decision making and corresponding policies using a structural dynamic choice model. Based on a novel identification approach, we exploit variation in average years invested in degree attainment through various educational...

Labor-market returns to the GED using regression discontinuity analysis

Jepsen, Christopher; Mueser, Peter R.; Troske, Kenneth R. - 2012

We evaluate the labor-market returns to General Educational Development (GED) certification using state administrative data. We develop a fuzzy regression discontinuity (FRD) method to account for the fact that GED test takers can repeatedly retake the test until they pass it. Our technique can...
