Abstract
We give two new approaches to testing conditional exogeneity. This condition ensures unconfoundedness and identification of structural effects. Our approaches permit the presence of treatment effects under the null, thereby complementing methods of Rosenbaum (1987) and Heckman and Hotz (1989).
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.
