Although a general unrestricted model may under-specify the data generation process, especially when breaks occur, model selection can still improve over estimating a prior specification.� Impulse-indicator saturation (IIS) can 'correct' non-constant intercepts induced by location shifts in omitted variables, which surprisingly leave slope parameters unaltered even when correlated with included variables.� However, location shifts in included variables do induce changes in slopes where there are correlated omitted variables.� IIS acts as a 'robust method' when models are mis-specified, and helps mitigate the adverse impacts of induced location shifts on non-constant intercepts and equation standard errors.Model selection, mis-specification,...
