推导了部分识别线性结构方程中LIML估计量系数渐近分布的闭式表达式,发现部分识别失败会导致其矩渐近不存在。

Abstract

We derive a closed-form expression for the asymptotic distribution of the LIML estimator for the coefficients of both endogenous and exogenous variables in a partially identified linear structural equation. We extend previous results of Phillips (1989) and Choi and Phillips (1992), where the focus was on IV estimators. We show that partial failure of identification affects the LIML in that its moments do not exist even asymptotically.
