Economics Letters, 2017, vol. 159, issue C, 42-45

Abstract: We suggest a new inference method for median regression which is robust to assumptions on the censoring mechanism. Applying the method on the SIPP data we obtain that the benefit elasticity of median unemployment duration is between -1.1% and +7.9%.
