Abstract: We examine econometric inferential issues with Hausman instruments. The instrumental variable (IV) estimator based on Hausman instrument has a built-in correlation across observations, which may render the textbook-style standard error invalid. We develop a standard error that is robust to these problems. Clustered standard error is not always valid, but it can be a good pragmatic compromise to deal with the interlinkage problem if Hausman instrument is to be used in econometric models in the tradition of Berry, Levinsohn, and Pakes (1995).
