Selection bias and Sample selection bias Selection bias:• Proper randomization is not in place
Sampling bias:• Systematic error because of the non-random sample
There is no selection problem if: Unmeasured factors uncorrelated Explanatory variables controlled

Heckman’s method for sample selection model
• Also known as “Heckit Model”
• Corrects the issue of the data being nonrandom.
• Heckman’s correction;• Involves normality assumption• Provides a test for sample selection bias• Provides a formula for bias corrected model

What is the selection problem?
• We want to estimate the determinants of wage offers for woman but…..
• We have access to wage observations for only those who work• People who work are selected non-randomly
Therefore;
• Estimating the determinants of wages from the our sample involves bias• This is where Heckman’s correction takes place.

The Heckman Model estimation by Maximum Likelihood Estimator :A sample selection model always involves two equations:• The regression equation considering mechanisms determining the outcome
variable.
• The selection equation considering a portion of the sample whose outcome is observed and mechanisms determining the selection process.
