Inference in Microeconometric Models (MiMo)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2021,

Unobserved differences between economic agents are an important driver behind the differences in their economic outcomes such as schooling decisions, wages, and employment durations. Allowing for such unobserved heterogeneity in economic modeling equips the specification with an additional dimension of realism but presents major challenges for econometric practice. Hence, reconciling heterogeneit ...
