In a missing-data setting, we have a sample in which a vector of explanatory variables x_i is observed for every subject i, while scalar outcomes y_i are missing by happenstance on some individuals. In this work we propose robust estimates…

Researchers now routinely use AI or other machine learning methods to estimate latent variables of economic interest, then plug-in the estimates as covariates in a regression. We show both theoretically and empirically that naively treating…

The multivariate regression model basically offers the analysis of a single dataset with multiple responses. However, such a single-dataset analysis often leads to unsatisfactory results. Integrative analysis is an effective method to pool…
