Changes in test scores distribution for students of the fourth grade in Brazil: a relative distribution analysis for the years 1997-2005
2013-06In Brazil, the mean of math test scores for students of the fourth grade declined by approximately 0.2 standard deviation in the late 1990s. However, the potential changes in the distribution of scores have never been ... -
Efficient estimation of data combination models by the method of Auxiliary-to-Study Tilting (AST)
2016-04-02We propose a locally efficient estimator for a class of semiparametric data combination problems. A leading estimand in this class is the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT). Data combination problems are related ... -
Identification and estimation of distributional impacts of interventions using changes in inequality measures
2016-05This paper presents estimators of distributional impacts of interventions when selection to the program is based on observable characteristics. Distributional impacts are calculated as differences in inequality measures ... -
Inverse probability tilting for moment condition models with missing data
2012-07We propose a new inverse probability weighting (IPW) estimator for moment condition models with missing data. Our estimator is easy to implement and compares favourably with existing IPW estimators, including augmented IPW ... -
Measuring peer effects in the Brazilian school system
2015Using the identification strategy proposed by Graham and Hahn (2005), we estimate the magnitude of classmate effects on math scores using Brazilian data from 2005. In addition, we provide a detailed discussion about the ...
