Bias of the Quasi Score Estimator of a Measurement Error Model Under Misspecification of the Regressor Distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In a structural error model the structural quasi score (SQS) estimator is based on the distribution of the latent regressor variable. If this distribution is misspecified the SQS estimator is (asymptotically) biased.

Environmental public good provision under robust decision making [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We study public good provision in a two-country dynamic setup with environmental externalities. In this framework, we examine robust decision making under potential misspecification of the process that describes the evolution of the environmental ...

Modeling Nonnegativity Via Truncated Logistic and Normal Distributions: An Application to Ranch Land Price Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1994
This study presents an empirical method of modeling the nonnegativity of dependent variables using truncated logistic and normal disturbance distributions. The method is applied in estimating a ranch land hedonic price function.

Bootstrap confidence sets under model misspecification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A multiplier bootstrap procedure for construction of likelihood-based confidence sets is considered for finite samples and a possible model misspecification. Theoretical results justify the bootstrap validity for a small or moderate sample size and allow

Specifying Turning Point in Piecewise Growth Curve Models: Challenges and Solutions

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2017
Piecewise growth curve model (PGCM) is often used when the underlying growth process is not linear and is hypothesized to consist of phasic developments connected by turning points (or knots or change points).

Comparing the Robustness of the Structural after Measurement (SAM) Approach to Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) against Local Model Misspecifications with Alternative Estimation Approaches

open access: yesStats, 2022
Structural equation models (SEM), or confirmatory factor analysis as a special case, contain model parameters at the measurement part and the structural part.

Imputation Estimators Partially Correct for Model Misspecification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Inference problems with incomplete observations often aim at estimating population properties of unobserved quantities. One simple way to accomplish this estimation is to impute the unobserved quantities of interest at the individual level and then take ...

On the pitfalls of Gaussian likelihood scoring for causal discovery

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2023
We consider likelihood score-based methods for causal discovery in structural causal models. In particular, we focus on Gaussian scoring and analyze the effect of model misspecification in terms of non-Gaussian error distribution. We present a surprising

Monetary Policy Misspecification in VAR Models [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2000
We examine the effects of extracting monetary policy disturbances with semi-structural and structural VARs, using data generated by a limited participation model under partial accommodative and feedback rules. We find that, in general, misspecification is substantial: short run coefficients often have wrong signs; impulse responses and variance ...
