Finite Sample Inference for the Maximum Score Estimand
Journal article Review of Economic Studies · November 1, 2025 We provide a finite sample inference method for the structural parameters of Manski's semiparametric binary response model under a conditional median restriction. This is achieved by exploiting distributional properties of observable outcomes conditional o ... Full text CiteEstimating Endogenous Effects on Ordinal Outcomes
Journal article Review of Economics and Statistics · November 1, 2025 We examine the use of instrumental variable (IV) methods to measure the effect of a ceteris paribus change in an endogenous variable on an ordered outcome. Specifically, we use these methods to investigate the effect of neighborhood characteristics on subj ... Full text CiteExtending the scope of instrumental variable methods
