Published: 01 August 2006
... this assumption is violated so that the mortality rate varies with sib ship size, mortality estimates can be massively biased. By using insights from work on the statistical analysis of selection bias, survey weighting, and extrapolation problems, we propose a new and relatively simple method of recovering...

... variances (it is biased in finite samples). Therefore, only the Guatemalan sample was corrected for heteroskedasticity. 4 The model was estimated using LIMDEP (Greene, 1983). Expanding this model to a simultaneous system of equations with selectivity bias correction is straightforward. See Greene (1983...

... that their female wage equation estimates are inconsistent. Correcting this error substantially weakens the role of the rising selection bias (39 % versus 78 %) and strengthens the contribution of declining discrimination (42 % versus 7 %). Our findings resonate better with related literature. We also explain why...

... are members. These results, however, may be attributable to selection bias because members might differ from nonmembers in ways that make them more susceptible to violence to begin with. Using a sample of currently married women from the 2007 Bangladesh Demographic Health Survey (BDHS) ( N = 4,195), we use...

We did not find effects of unwantedness on survival, but we did find that socioeconomic selection bias was actually making it more likely to find spurious effects of wantedness on child health. The dueling selection biases that we have discussed will make...

The salmon bias hypothesis posits that the apparent Hispanic health advantage arises from selective return migration when those who are comparably less healthy return to their country of origin (Abraído-Lanza et...

Tables of bounds for measurement and estimator biases in the vital statistics and the forward survival ratio estimates of net intercensal migration are presented. Both net migration levels and net migration ratios are treated, and provision is made...

..., and it has been argued that estimates of neighborhood effects are biased because people nonrandomly select into neighborhoods based on their preferences, income, and the availability of alternative housing. We propose a two-step framework to disentangle selection processes in the relationship between...

We also allow for the possibility that disruption may have different effects at different stages of a child’s educational career. Our results suggest that selection on time-invariant maternal...

...Götz Rohwer Abstract When investigating relationships between education and health, one has to take age into account. Conditioning on age entails conditioning on surviving, which has been argued to lead to a potential selection bias. In this note, I argue that surviving should be considered...

Results support the need for modeling quality and for jointly estimating the choice of contraceptive method and the choice of provider to avoid biased estimates of coefficients.

Further, it is shown that a Catholic upbringing generally has no effect on men’s age at first marriage and has a positive effect on the age when women...

Drawing on a sample of U.S. black and white mothers with nonmarital conceptions from the NLSY79, our study fills this gap.

Using sibling fixed-effects models to account for selection bias, we find that relative to children in other low-income families, children in SNAP-recipient households have higher average adult BMI values.
