Consistent estimation of binary-choice panel data models with heterogeneous linear trends

چکیده
This paper presents an extension of fixed effects binary choice models for panel data, to the case of heterogeneous linear trends. Two estimators are proposed: a Logit estimator based on double conditioning and a semiparametric, smoothed maximum score estimator based on double differences. We investigate small-sample properties of these estimators with a Monte Carlo simulation experiment, and compare their statistical properties with standard fixed effects procedures. An empirical application to land renting decisions of Russian households between 1996 and 2002 is proposed.

Binary Response Correlated Random Coefficient Panel Data Models
In this paper, we consider binary response correlated random coefficient (CRC) panel data models which are frequently used in the analysis of treatment effects and demand of products. We focus on the nonparametric identification and estimation of panel data models under unobserved heterogeneity which is captured by random coefficients and when these random coefficients are correlated with regre...
متن کاملAn alternative root-n consistent estimator for panel data binary choice models
In this paper, we present an alternative root-n consistent estimator for panel data fixed-effects binary choice models. The proposed estimator relaxes one of the key conditions that are required for the consistency of the estimator proposed in Honoré and Lewbel (2002), and is shown to be consistent and asymptotically normally distributed under some sufficient conditions. An easy to compute cons...
متن کاملIdentification in Discrete Choice Models with Fixed Effects
This paper deals with issues of identification in parametric discrete choice panel data models with fixed effects when the number of time periods is fixed. I show that, under fairly general conditions, the common parameters in a model of discrete probabilities containing a nonparametric “fixed effect” will be non-identified unless the parametric probability distribution obeys a hyperplane restr...
متن کاملProfile Likelihood Estimation of Partially Linear Panel Data Models with Fixed Effects∗
We consider consistent estimation of partially linear panel data models with fixed effects. We propose profile-likelihood-based estimators for both the parametric and nonparametric components in the models and establish convergence rates and asymptotic normality for both estimators.
متن کاملSimple Endogenous Binary Choice and Selection Panel Model Estimators
This paper provides numerically trivial estimators for short panels of either binary choices or of linear models that suffer from confounded, missing not at random sample selection. The estimators allow for Þxed effects, endogenous regressors, weakly exogenous regressors, and heterokedastic errors with unknown distribution. The estimators, which converge at rate root n, are based on variants of...
