Logit-based alternatives to two-stage least squares
, 2023 We propose logit-based IV and augmented logit-based IV estimators that serve as alternatives to the traditionally used 2SLS estimator in the model where both the endogenous treatment variable and the corresponding instrument are binary. Our novel estimators are as easy to compute as the 2SLS estimator but have an advantage over the 2SLS estimator in ...

Two-Stage Least Squares with a Randomly Right-Censored Outcome [PDF]
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021 This note develops a simple two-stage least squares (2SLS) procedure to estimate the causal effect of some endogenous regressors on a randomly right censored outcome in the linear model. The proposal replaces the usual ordinary least squares regressions of the standard 2SLS by weighted least squares regressions.

Convex Combination of Ordinary Least Squares and Two-stage Least Squares Estimators
, 2015 In the presence of confounders, the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimator is known to be biased. This problem can be remedied by using the two-stage least squares (TSLS) estimator, based on the availability of valid instrumental variables (IVs). This reduction in bias, however, is offset by an increase in variance.
