Estimation of Heterogeneous Individual Treatment Effects With Endogenous Treatments
内生处理下异质性个体处理效应的估计
This article estimates individual treatment effects (ITE) and its probability distribution in a triangular model with binary-valued endogenous treatments. Our estimation procedure takes two steps. First, we estimate the counterfactual outcome and hence, the ITE for every observational unit in the sample. Second, we estimate the ITE density function of the whole population. Our estimation method does not suffer from the ill-posed inverse problem associated with inverting a…
