Estimating Models with Sample Selection Bias: A Survey
Abstract
This paper surveys the available methods for estimating models with sample selection bias. I initially examine the fully parameterized model proposed by Heckman (1979) before investigating departures in two directions. First, I consider the relaxation of distributional assumptions. In doing so I present the available semi-parametric procedures. Second, I investigate the ability to tackle different selection rules generating the selection bias. Finally, I discuss how the estimation procedures applied in the cross-sectional case can be extended to panel data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
