Investigating the impact of endogeneity on inefficiency estimates in the application of stochastic frontier analysis to nursing homes
This paper examines the impact of an endogenous cost function variable on the inefficiency estimates generated by stochastic frontier analysis (SFA). The specific variable of interest in this application is endogenous quality in nursing homes. We simulate a dataset based on the characteristics of fo...
