This paper explores the effects of simulated moments on the performance of inference methods based on moment inequalities.

We propose simultaneous mean-variance regression for the linear estimation and approximation of conditional mean functions.

We propose a new nonparametric test of stochastic monotonicity which adapts to the unknown smoothness of the conditional distribution of interest, possesses desirable asymptotic properties, is conceptually easy to implement, and computationally attractive.

This paper studies the properties of generalised empirical likelihood (GEL) methods for the estimation of and inference on partially identified parameters in models specified by unconditional moment inequality constraints.

This article reviews recent advances in fixed effect estimation of panel data models for long panels, where the number of time periods is relatively large.

This paper provides a method to construct simultaneous condfience bands for quantile functions and quantile effects in nonlinear network and panel models with unobserved two-way effects, strictly exogenous covariates, and possibly discrete outcome variables.

In the regression discontinuity design (RDD), it is common practice to assess the credibility of the design by testing the continuity of the density of the running variable at the cut-off, e.g., McCrary (2008). In this paper we propose a new test for continuity of a density at a point based on the so-called g-order statistics, and study its properties under a novel asymptotic framework.

We set up an econometric model of persuasion and study identification of key parameters under various scenarios of data availability.

Economic data are often generated by stochastic processes that take place in continuous time, though observations may occur only at discrete times.

It is almost self-evident that social interactions can determine economic behavior and outcomes. Yet, information on social ties does not exist in most publicly available and widely used datasets. We present methods to recover information on the entire structure of social networks from observational panel data that contains no information on social ties between individuals.

We extend conformal inference to general settings that allow for time series data.

We provide adaptive inference methods for linear functionals of L1-regularized linear approximations to the conditional expectation function.
