简介：

Nonlinearity and endogeneity are prevalent challenges in causal analysis using observational data. This paper proposes an inference procedure for a nonlinear and endogenous marginal effect function, defined as the derivative of the nonparametric treatment function, with a primary focus on an additive model that includes high-dimensional covariates. Using the control function approach for identification, we implement a regularized nonparametric estimation to obtain an initial estimator of the model. Such an initial estimator suffers from two biases: the bias in estimating the control function and the regularization bias for the high-dimensional outcome model. Our key innovation is to devise the double bias correction procedure that corrects these two biases simultaneously. Building on this debiased estimator, we further provide a confidence band of the marginal effect function. Simulations and an empirical study of air pollution and migration demonstrate the validity of our procedures. |
