Abstract
This paper examines the identification of the unconditional quantile treatment effect (QTE) using the Instrumental Variable Quantile Regression (IVQR) model, allowing for the possibility of high-dimensional covariates. We develop a Neyman-Orthogonal moment condition for the unconditional QTE in cases where the potential outcome equations are specified nonparametrically, capturing a rich pattern of heterogeneous treatment effect. Based on this moment condition, we discuss the estimation procedure.
期刊介绍:
Many economists today are concerned by the proliferation of journals and the concomitant labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Economics Letters has been conceived and designed outside the realm of the traditional economics journal. As a Letters Journal, it consists of concise communications (letters) that provide a means of rapid and efficient dissemination of new results, models and methods in all fields of economic research.
