误分类处理的局部平均处理效应推断

Inference on Local Average Treatment Effects for Misclassified Treatment

Takahide Yanagi

摘要:

当二进制处理包含测量误差时,我们发展了局部平均处理效应的点识别。标准的工具变量估计是不一致的参数,因为测量误差是非经典的建设。我们通过使用一个外生变量(甚至可以是二元协变量)来确定测量误差的分布来纠正这个问题。从辨识得到的矩条件导出了具有渐近有效推论的广义矩估计估计方法。蒙特卡罗模拟和一个实证说明所提出的程序的实用性。

英文摘要:

We develop point-identification for the local average treatment effect when the binary treatment contains a measurement error. The standard instrumental variable estimator is inconsistent for the parameter since the measurement error is non-classical by construction. We correct the problem by identifying the distribution of the measurement error based on the use of an exogenous variable that can even be a binary covariate. The moment conditions derived from the identification lead to generalized method of moments estimation with asymptotically valid inferences. Monte Carlo simulations and an empirical illustration demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed procedure.
