We consider the partially linear model relating a response $Y$ to
predictors ($X, T$) with mean function $X^{\top}\beta + g(T)$ when the
$X$’s are measured with additive error. The semiparametric likelihood
estimate of Severini and Staniswalis leads to biased estimates of both the
parameter $\beta$ and the function $g(\cdot)$ when measurement error is
ignored. We derive a simple modification of their estimator which is a
semiparametric version of the usual parametric correction for attenuation. The
resulting estimator of $\beta$ is shown to be consistent and its asymptotic
distribution theory is derived. Consistent standard error estimates using
sandwich-type ideas are also developed.
