Treatment Effects with Multidimensional Unobserved Heterogeneity: Identification of the Marginal Treatment Effect

, 2022
This paper establishes sufficient conditions for the identification of the marginal treatment effects with multivalued treatments. Our model is based on a multinomial choice model with utility maximization. Our MTE generalizes the MTE defined in Heckman and Vytlacil (2005) in binary treatment models.
