1、Endogeneity in Econometrics:Simultaneous Equations Models,Ming LU,Simultaneity,This arises when one or more of the explanatory variables is jointly determined with the dependent variable, typically through an equilibrium mechanism. The method of instrumental variables. Why do we need to estimate str
2、uctural model rather than reduced-form model?,THE NATURE OF SIMULTANEOUSEQUATIONS MODELS,Concepts,Endogenous variables Exogenous variables Structural errors Each equation should have a behavioral, ceteris paribus interpretation on its own.,SIMULTANEITY BIAS IN OLS,simultaneity bias,IDENTIFYING AND E
3、STIMATING A STRUCTURAL EQUATION,Identification in a Two-Equation System The first is supply equation. The second is demand equation.,A general two-equation model,Exclusion restrictions,In other words, we assume that certain exogenous variables do not appear in the first equation and others are absen
4、t from the second equation.,RANK CONDITION FOR IDENTIFICATION OF A STRUCTURAL EQUATION,The first equation in a two-equation simultaneous equations model is identified if and only if the second equation contains at least one exogenous variable (with a nonzero coefficient) that is excluded from the fi
5、rst equation. The order condition is necessary for the rank condition. The rank condition requires more: at least one of the exogenous variables excluded from the first equation must have a nonzero population coefficient in the second equation.,Estimation by 2SLS,This is similar in the previous chap
6、ter.,SYSTEMS WITH MORE THAN TWO EQUATIONS,ORDER CONDITION FOR IDENTIFICATION,An equation in any SEM satisfies the order condition for identification if the number of excluded exogenous variables from the equation is at least as large as the number of right-hand side endogenous variables.

More sensitive to variable selection.,SIMULTANEOUS EQUATIONS MODELS WITH PANEL DATA,(1) eliminate the unobserved effects from the equati

Challenging, because for a convincing analysis we need to find instruments that change over time.,How to do if you want to identify the fixed-effects?,Put time dummies and fixed-effects dummies in the structural model.,The end.,
