讲座摘要:For the quantile regression with endogeneity, Chernozhukov and Hansen (2006, 2008) developed the instrumental variables quantile regression estimator (IVQR). When censoring and endogeneity are both present, however, no practically effective instrumental variable quantile regression procedures are available, unless very strong restrictions are imposed on the exact nature of the endogeneity. In this paper, in a general setting without imposing any condition on the nature of endogeneity, we develop the sequential instrumental variable censored quantile regression procedure (SIVCQR) for the family of structural quantile regression coefficients. Our SIVCQR estimator is simple to implement in typical applications. By effectively transforming the difficult instrumental variable censored quantile regression into more standard instrumental variable quantile regression (IVQR), our estimation approach makes the instrumental variable quantile regression techniques for censored data readily accessible to applied researchers. In addition, the sequential nature of our new procedure expands the quantile range for which the structural quantile regression coefficients can be recovered, especially for the tail quantile coefficients, which may precisely be of most interest to applied researchers. We provide large sample properties of the SIVCQR. Simulation results show that our estimator performs well.
