Abstract

We study the identification problem of the linear long regression coefficients by data combination. Unlike the usual data combination problem, we consider combining multiple short regressions of the same outcome with different regressors. For this conceptually novel problem, we provide partial identification results for the long regression coefficients under a restriction on the unknown correlation structure. Specifically, we employ an elliptic constraint from the relations among the explained variations of the regressions to induce the bounds.
