简介 |
<p>In this paper, we study the inference problem under misspecification in a linear instrumental variable (IV) regression with potential weak identification. Under weak IV, inference is typically done via hypothesis testing. Thus we first introduce the concept of pseudo-true parameter value for a test and investigate the pseduo-true value for the 2SLS-t test, the Anderson-Rubin (AR) test, the Lagrange Multiplier (LM), and the conditional likelihood ratio (CLR) test. We find that only the 2SLS-t test has a unique proper pseudo-true value that has an economic interpretation in a commonly considered scenario. We then focus attention on the 2SLS-t test pseudo-true value and design a group of tests that are robust to both weak IV and misspecification.</p> |
