Endogeneity: An inconvenient truth (for researchers)

Épisode de HEC Lausanne par UNIL | Université de Lausanne · 1 novembre 2011 · 16 min

It is well known that endogeneity leads to inconsistent estimates. Unfortunately, many researchers working outside of economics are not aware of the problem of endogeneity and how to deal with it. Prof. John Antonakis shows how the two-stage least squares (2SLS) estimator recovers causal estimates in the presence of endogeneity (which includes the problem of common-method variance). He also shows that endogeneity can even be prevalent in experimental designs, when researchers estimate mediation models; that is, where the causal effect of an exogenous variable on a dependent variable is mediated by an endogenous variable (or a manipulation check).
