参数条件分布的非参数 Bootstrap 检验AI 解读

This paper proposes a bootstrap test for the correct specification of parametric conditional distributions. It extends Zheng's test (Zheng, 2000, Econometric Theory 16, 667–691) to allow for discrete dependent variables and for mixed discrete and continuous conditional variables. We establish the asymptotic null distribution of the test statistic with data-driven stochastic smoothing parameters. By smoothing both the discrete and continuous variables via the method of…

新近两阶段样本选择方法及其在性别工资差距中的应用AI 解读

Recently developed two-stage estimation methods of sample selection models are used, in the context of data from the 1989 Labor Market Activity Survey, to examine labor supply decisions and wage outcomes for employed men and women. Recent hypothesis test procedures are used to test for no sample selection and to test for a parametric against a semiparametric selection-correction procedure. We conclude that selection is indeed an issue for the sample at hand and that the…
