Abstract

An estimator is proposed for semiparametric linear regression models with left truncated and right censored dependent variables. The estimator is derived from a moment condition following the principles of Newey [Newey, W.K., 2001. Conditional moment restrictions in censored and truncated regression models. Econometric Theory 17, 863-888] on conditional moment conditions. Consistency of the estimator is shown and simulation is used for illustration of the small sample properties.
