instrumental variables method
1Instrumental variable — In statistics, econometrics, and related disciplines, the method of instrumental variables (IV) is used to estimate causal relationships when controlled experiments are not feasible. Statistically, IV methods allow consistent estimation when the… …
2Errors-in-variables models — In statistics and econometrics, errors in variables models or measurement errors models are regression models that account for measurement errors in the independent variables. In contrast, standard regression models assume that those regressors… …
3Errors-in-variables model — In statistics, an error in variables model is a statistical model which is similar to a regression model but where the independent variables (or explanatory variables) are observed with error. A full statistical model includes components… …
