We first use a simple example to show that the structural threshold regression (STR) estimator of the threshold point in Kourtellos, Stengos and Tan (2016,\n                    <jats:italic>Econometric Theory<\/jats:italic>\n                    32, 827\u2013860) is inconsistent unless the endogeneity level of the threshold variable is low compared to the threshold effect. We correct the CF in the STR estimator to generate our first CF estimator using a method that extends the two-stage least squares procedure in Caner and Hansen (2004,\n                    <jats:italic>Econometric Theory<\/jats:italic>\n                    20, 813\u2013843). We develop our second CF estimator which can be treated as an extension of the classical CF approach in endogenous linear regression. Both these approaches embody threshold effect information in the conditional variance beyond that in the conditional mean. Given the threshold point estimates, we propose new estimates for the slope parameters. The first is a by-product of the CF approach, and the second type employs generalized method of moment (GMM) procedures based on two new sets of moment conditions. Simulation studies, in conjunction with the limit theory, show that our second CF estimator and confidence interval for the threshold point together with the associated second GMM estimator and confidence interval for the slope parameter dominate the other methods. We further apply the new estimation methodology to an empirical application from international trade to illustrate its usefulness in practice.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0266466623000014","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,16]],"date-time":"2023-03-16T01:54:12Z","timestamp":1678931652000},"page":"1065-1119","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["NEW CONTROL FUNCTION APPROACHES IN THRESHOLD REGRESSION WITH ENDOGENEITY"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Ping","family":"Yu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Qin","family":"Liao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Peter C.
