Estimating potential outcome distributions using local instrumental variables with an application to changes in college enrollment and wage inequality
Abstract: This paper extends the method of local instrumental variables developed by Heckman and Vytlacil [Heckman, J. and Vytlacil, E., 1999. Local instrumental variable and latent variable models for identifying and bounding treatment effects. In: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 96, 4730–4734; Heckman, J. and Vytlacil, E., 2001. Local Instrumental Variables. In: C. Hsiao, K. Morimune, and J. Powells, (Eds.), Nonlinear Statistical Modeling: Proceedings of the Thirteenth International Symposium in Economic Theory and Econometrics: Essays in Honor of Takeshi Amemiya, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, (2000), pp. 1–46; Heckman, J. and Vytlacil E., 2005. Structural equations, treatment, effects and econometric policy evaluation. Econometrica 73(3), 669–738] to the estimation of not only means, but also distributions of potential outcomes. The newly developed method is illustrated by applying it to changes in college enrollment and wage inequality using data from the Nation
