An Omitted Variable Bias Framework for Sensitivity Analysis of Instrumental Variables

Social Science Research Network
We develop an omitted variable bias framework for sensitivity analysis of instrumental variable estimates that naturally handles multiple side-effects (violations of the exclusion restriction assumption) and confounders (violations of the ignorability ...
