Correcting for Endogeneity in Models with Bunching
聚集模型中的内生性修正
We develop a novel control function approach in models where the treatment variable has bunching at one corner of its support. This situation typically arises when the treatment variable is a constrained choice and some observations choose the corner solution. The method exploits distributional shape restrictions but makes no exclusion restrictions. We provide estimators and establish their asymptotic behavior, prove the convergence of the bootstrap, and develop tests of the…
