Tobit models for count time series
AbstractSeveral models for count time series have been developed during the last decades, often inspired by traditional autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models for real‐valued time series, including integer‐valued ARMA (INARMA) and integer‐valued generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (INGARCH) models.

Testing identifying assumptions in Tobit Models
We develop sharp, testable implications for the identifying assumptions of Tobit and IV-Tobit models: linear index, (joint) normality of errors, treatment (instrument) exogeneity, and relevance. The new sharp testable equalities can detect all possible observable violations of the identifying conditions.
