The test can be seen as a generalization of the Breusch–Pagan test against random individual effects to all regression coefficients. While the original test procedure assumes a likelihood framework under normality, several useful variants of the LM test are presented to allow for non-normality, heteroscedasticity and serially correlated errors. Moreover, the tests can be conveniently computed via simple artificial regressions. We derive the limiting distribution of the LM test and show that if the errors are not normally distributed, the original LM test is asymptotically valid if the number of time periods tends to infinity. A simple modification of the score statistic yields an LM test that is robust to non-normality if the number of time periods is fixed. Further adjustments provide versions of the LM test that are robust to heteroscedasticity and serial correlation. We compare the local power of our tests and the statistic proposed by Pesaran and Yamagata. The results of the Monte Carlo experiments suggest that the LM-type test can be substantially more powerful, in particular, when the number of time periods is small.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50555,"journal":{"name":"Econometrics Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2016-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/ectj.12070","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130828435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional estimation methods rely on the key assumption that the spatial weight matrix is exogenous, which would likely be violated in some empirical applications where spatial weights are determined by economic factors. In this paper, we propose an SDPD model with individual fixed effects in a short time dimension, where the spatial weights can be endogenous and time-varying. We establish the consistency and asymptotic normality of the two-stage instrumental variable (2SIV) estimator and we investigate its finite sample properties using a Monte Carlo simulation.

Focused attention is given to semiparametric and nonparametric models that incorporate mixture distributions, where important issues about model specifications arise. For example, there is a significant difference between a finite mixture and a continuous mixture in terms of model identifiability. Likewise, the dimension of the latent mixing variables is a critical issue, in particular when a continuous mixture is used. We present applications of mixture models to address various problems in econometrics, such as unobserved heterogeneity and multiple equilibria. New nonparametric identification results are developed for finite mixture models with testable exclusion restrictions without relying on an identification-at-infinity assumption on covariates. The results apply to mixtures with both continuous and discrete covariates, delivering point identification under weak conditions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50555,"journal":{"name":"Econometrics Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2016-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1111/ectj.12068","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134167339","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For estimation, we use the idea of local instruments under smoothness assumptions, but we do not assume additive separability in latent variables. Our estimator uses nonparametric kernel regression techniques and its statistical properties are derived using the functional delta method. We establish that it is -consistent and has a limiting normal distribution. We apply the method to estimate the returns on a college education.

Moreover, it is proved that the new tests can even be justified under high dimension, low sample size limits, provided that a homo-rank condition holds.
