ABSTRACT For binary outcome models, an endogeneity correction based on nonlinear rank‐based transformations is proposed. Identification without external instruments is achieved under one of two assumptions: Either the endogenous regressor is a nonlinear function of one component of the error term, conditional on the exogenous regressors, or the ...

Bayesian Inference for Joint Estimation Models Using Copulas to Handle Endogenous Regressors
ABSTRACT This study proposes a Bayesian approach for finite‐sample inference of the Gaussian copula endogeneity correction. Extant studies use frequentist inference, build on a priori computed estimates of marginal distributions of explanatory variables, and use bootstrapping to obtain standard errors. The proposed Bayesian approach facilitates precise

Abstract Stein operators allow one to characterize probability distributions via differential operators. Based on these characterizations, we develop a new method of point estimation for marginal parameters of strictly stationary and ergodic processes, which we call Stein's Method of Moments (SMOM). These SMOM estimators satisfy the desirable classical

Semiparametric regression for circular response with application in ecology
ABSTRACT A regression model for a circular response variable depending on a linear or a circular predictor is presented in this paper. The conditional density belongs to a parametric flexible family that allows for asymmetry and varying peakedness around the modal direction.

Alternation of must, have to, and need to in English as a lingua franca
Abstract This study explores the grammatical variability of modal auxiliary verbs in English as a lingua franca. Focusing on the ongoing change must, have to, and need to, this research utilizes two spoken corpora: the Vienna–Oxford International Corpus of English (VOICE) and the Asian Corpus of English (ACE).
