Abstract:
This thesis provides estimation and testing procedures in nonparametric instrumental mean and quantile regression models. It consists of three essays that are self-contained and can be read separately. The first essay establishes an adaptive estimation method for linear functionals in the mean regression case. The second essay provides a testing procedure in instrumental mean regression. In the third essay, a testing methodology for instrumental quantile regression is developed.
