Sumario:This thesis consists of three essays on identification, estimation, and inference on distributional features of heterogeneous parameters using panel data. In the first chapter, Christian Brownlees and I consider the problem of efficiently estimating a unit-specific parameter in a heterogeneous panel setting using a class of unit averaging estimators we propose. In the second chapter, I develop a methodology for conducting inference on extreme quantiles of unobserved individual heterogeneity (heterogeneous coefficients, heterogeneous treatment effects, etc.) when only noisy estimates are available in a panel data or meta-analysis setting. The third chapter is dedicated to the problem of estimation of the moments and the distribution of heterogeneous marginal effects in nonparametric models with multivariate unobserved heterogeneity.
