Description Usage Arguments Details Value References Examples
This function estimates the model parameters and associated standard errors for a linear regression model with one or more endogenous regressors. Identification is achieved through heteroscedastic covariance restrictions within the triangular system.
1 |
formula |
an object of class “formula” (or one that can be coerced to that class). |
data |
the data frame containing these data. This argument must be used. |
clustervar |
a character value naming the cluster on which to adjust the standard errors and test statistics. |
robust |
if |
The formula follows a four-part specification. Each part is separated by a vertical bar character “|”. The following formula is an example: y2 ~ y1 | x1 + x2 + x3 | x1 + x2 | z1
. Here, y2
is the dependent variable and y1
is the endogenous regressor. The code x1 + x2 + x3
represents the exogenous regressors whereas the third part x1 + x2
specifies the exogenous heteroscedastic variables from which the instruments are derived. The final part z1
is optional, allowing the user to include tradtional instrumental variables. If both robust=TRUE
and !is.null(clustervar)
the function overrides the robust command and computes clustered standard errors and test statistics adjusted to account for clustering. This function computes partial F-statistics that indicate potentially weak identification. In cases where there is more than one endogenous regressor the Angrist-Pischke (2009) method for multivariate first-stage F-statistics is employed.
coef.est |
a coefficient matrix with columns containing the estimates, associated standard errors, test statistics and p-values. |
call |
the matched call. |
num.obs |
the number of observations. |
j.test |
J-test for overidentifying restrictions. |
f.test.stats |
Partial F-test statistics for weak IV detection. |
