Externally Valid Policy Choice

no code implementations11 May 2022 Christopher Adjaho, Timothy Christensen

We first show that welfare-maximizing policies for the experimental population are robust to shifts in the distribution of outcomes (but not characteristics) between the experimental and target populations.

Optimal Decision Rules when Payoffs are Partially Identified

no code implementations25 Apr 2022 Timothy Christensen, Hyungsik Roger Moon, Frank Schorfheide

We derive optimal statistical decision rules for discrete choice problems when payoffs depend on a partially-identified parameter $\theta$ and the decision maker can use a point-identified parameter $P$ to deduce restrictions on $\theta$.

Adaptive Estimation and Uniform Confidence Bands for Nonparametric Structural Functions and Elasticities

no code implementations25 Jul 2021 Xiaohong Chen, Timothy Christensen, Sid Kankanala

The first is a data-driven choice of sieve dimension for a popular class of sieve two-stage least squares estimators.

Counterfactual Sensitivity and Robustness

no code implementations1 Apr 2019 Timothy Christensen, Benjamin Connault

In particular, we derive bounds on counterfactuals as the distribution of latent variables spans nonparametric neighborhoods of a given parametric specification while other "structural" features of the model are maintained.
