Identifying Heterogeneity in Economic Choice Models
We show how to nonparametrically identify the distribution that characterizes heterogeneity among agents in a general class of structural choice models. We introduce an axiom that we term separability and prove that separability of a structural model ensures identification. The main strength of separability is that it makes verifying the identification of nonadditive models a tractable task bec...
متن کاملMisspecification and Heterogeneity in Binary Choice Models
We address function misspecification and model heterogeneity, two critical issues in empirical work. A nonparametric approach is proposed for single-index, binary-choice models when parametric models such as Probit and Logit are potentially misspecified. The new approach involves two steps: first, we estimate index coefficients using sliced inverse regression without knowing the conditional pro...
متن کاملHeterogeneity in dynamic discrete choice models
We consider dynamic discrete choice models with heterogeneity in both the levels parameter and the state dependence parameter. We rst analyse the purchase of full fat milk using a long consumer panel (T > 100) on many households. The large T nature of the panel allows us to consistently estimate the parameters of each household separately. This analysis indicates strongly that the levels and T...
متن کاملRandom Covariance Heterogeneity in Discrete Choice Models
In this paper, we extend the standard discrete choice modelling framework by allowing for random variation in the substitution patterns between alternatives across respondents, leading to increased model flexibility. The paper shows how such a Mixed Covariance model can be specified either with purely random variation or with a mixture between random and deterministic variation. Additionally, t...
متن کاملNonparametric Discrete Choice Models with Unobserved Heterogeneity
In this research, we provide a new method to estimate discrete choice models with unobserved heterogeneity that can be used with either cross-sectional or panel data. The method imposes nonparametric assumptions on the systematic subutility functions and on the distributions of the unobservable random vectors and the heterogeneity parameter. The estimators are computationally feasible and stron...
