Abstract

This paper presents simple approaches to deal with sample selection in models with multiplicative errors. GMM estimators are constructed for both cross-section data and for panel data. These estimators build only on a specification of the conditional mean of the outcome of interest and are, therefore, semiparametric in nature. In particular, the distribution of unobservables is left unspecified. In the panel-data case, we further allow for group-specific fixed effects whose relation to covariates is left unrestricted. We derive distribution theory for both sampling situations and present Monte Carlo evidence on the finite-sample performance of the approach.
