We introduce a new test for a two-sided hypothesis involving a subset of the structural parameter vector in the linear instrumental variables (IVs) model. Guggenberger et al. (2019), GKM19 from now on, introduce a subvector Anderson-Rubin (AR) test with data-dependent critical values that has asymptotic size equal to nominal size for a parameter space that allows for arbitrary strength or weakness of the IVs and has uniformly nonsmaller power than the projected AR test studied in Guggenberger et al. (2012). However, GKM19 imposes the restrictive assumption of conditional homoskedasticity. The main contribution here is to robustify the procedure in GKM19 to arbitrary forms of conditional heteroskedasticity. We first adapt the method in GKM19 to a setup where a certain covariance matrix has an approximate Kronecker product (AKP) structure which nests conditional homoskedasticity. The new test equals this adaption when the data is consistent with AKP structure as decided by a model selection procedure. Otherwise the test equals the AR/AR test in Andrews (2017) that is fully robust to conditional heteroskedasticity but less powerful than the adapted method. We show theoretically that the new test has asymptotic size bounded by the nominal size and document improved power relative to the AR/AR test in a wide array of Monte Carlo simulations when the covariance matrix is not too far from AKP.
Two frequent approaches for identifying structural VARs are external instruments, which carry economic content but are often weak, and non-Gaussianity of the shocks, which provides statistical identification but carries no economic meaning. We combine the two strategies in a single generalized method of moments framework. This hybrid approach point-identifies the target shocks while also identifying the non-target shocks up to sign and ordering. Under suitable rank…
观察性时间序列动态因果效应的半参数推断
In observational time series, statistical inference for dynamic causal effects of a one-time intervention across horizons is complicated by high-dimensional observed pre-treatment information, unmeasured confounding, and serial dependence. To address these challenges, we develop a semiparametric framework for inference from a single serially dependent time series, integrating debiased machine learning with instrumental variables through buffered block cross-fitting. Under…
时间序列中的动态局部平均处理效应
This paper discusses identification, estimation, and inference on dynamic local average treatment effects (LATEs) in instrumental variables (IVs) settings. First, we show that compliers--observations whose treatment status is affected by the instrument--can be identified individually in time series data using smoothness assumptions and local comparisons of treatment assignments. Second, we show that this result enables not only better interpretability of IV estimates but…
使用外部工具变量的面板向量自回归:识别、估计与推断
This paper proposes an identification inspired from the SVAR-IV literature that uses external instruments to identify PVARs, and discusses associated issues of identification, estimation, and inference. I introduce a form of local average treatment effect - the $μ$-LATE - which arises when a continuous instrument targets a binary treatment. Under standard assumptions of independence, exclusion, and monotonicity, I show that externally instrumented PVARs estimate the $μ$-LATE.…
未观测混杂下预测算法的稳健设计与评估
Predictive algorithms inform consequential decisions in settings with selective labels: outcomes are observed only for units selected by past decision makers. This creates an identification problem under unobserved confounding -- when selected and unselected units differ in unobserved ways that affect outcomes. We propose a framework for robust design and evaluation of predictive algorithms that bounds how much outcomes may differ between selected and unselected units with…
含即时效应的 VARMA 过程:全局马尔可夫性、忠实性与工具变量
Causal reasoning has gained great attention over the last half century as it allows (or at least intends) to answer questions which go above those within the capabilities of classical inferential statistics using just observational data. So far, causal research has been focused mostly on the i.i.d. setting. However, many are the situations where there exists a non-trivial dependence structure between sequential observations. Motivated by this fact, the main purpose of this…
