Incarceration and mortality in the United States
SSM: Population Health, 2021 The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has spotlighted the role of America's overcrowded prisons as vectors of ill health, but robust analyses of the degree to which high rates of incarceration impact population-level health outcomes remain scarce. In this paper,

Causal inference with imperfect instrumental variables
Journal of Causal Inference, 2022 Instrumental variables allow for quantification of cause and effect relationships even in the absence of interventions. To achieve this, a number of causal assumptions must be met, the most important of which is the independence assumption, which states ...

Instrumental variable analysis [PDF]
Nephrology Dialysis Transplantation, 2012 The main advantage of the randomized controlled trial (RCT) is the random assignment of treatment that prevents selection by prognosis. Nevertheless, only few RCTs can be performed given their high cost and the difficulties in conducting such studies.

Identification of the separately excited DC motor with extended instrumental variables
Вестник Самарского государственного технического университета. Серия: Технические науки, 2022 The problem of identifying the parameters of a DC motor is considered. The presence of measurement errors of currents and voltages leads to errors in both input and output signals. Existing methods for identifying the parameters of a DC motor do not take

Instrumental Variables Regression with Weak Instruments [PDF]
Econometrica, 1997 Summary: This paper develops asymptotic distribution theory for single-equation instrumental variables regression when the partial correlations between the instruments and the endogenous variables are weak, here modeled as local to zero. Asymptotic representations are provided for various statistics, including two-stage least squares (TSLS) and limited

Nonparametric instrumental variable estimation [PDF]
The Stata Journal: Promoting communications on statistics and Stata, 2018 In this article, we introduce the commands npiv and npivcv, which implement nonparametric instrumental-variable (NPIV) estimation methods without and with a cross-validated choice of tuning parameters, respectively. Both commands can impose the constraint that the resulting estimated function is monotone.

Groundwater Usage and Strategic Complements: Part I (Instrumental Variables)
Games, 2022 We test whether the decisions in a common-pool resource game are better modeled game-theoretically as strategic substitutes or complements using an individual-level dataset of groundwater usage that accounts for 3% of US irrigated agriculture. Based on a

Instrumental Weighted Variables
Austrian Journal of Statistics, 2016 A motivation for the classical Instrumental Variables and the reasons for here-proposed way of their robustification are discussed. The conditions for the ?n-consistency, the existence of Bahadur representation and the asymptotic normality of the ...
