Identification in most sample selection models depends on the independence of the regressors and the error terms conditional on the selection probability. All quantile and mean functions are parallel in these models; this implies that quantile estimators cannot reveal any—per assumption non-existing—heterogeneity. Quantile estimators are nevertheless useful for testing the …
