Testing for Nonnested Conditional Moment Restrictions via Conditional Empirical Likelihood
We propose non-nested tests for competing conditional moment resctriction models using a method of empirical likelihood. Our tests are based on the method of conditional empirical likelihood developed by Kitamura, Tripathi and Ahn (2004) and Zhang and Gijbels (2003). By using the conditional implied probabilities, we develop three non-nested tests: the moment encompassing, Cox-type, and effcien...
متن کاملTesting under Weak Identification with Conditional Moment Restrictions∗
We propose a semiparametric test for the value of coefficients in models with conditional moment restrictions which has correct size regardless of identification strength. The test is in essence an Anderson–Rubin (AR) test using nonparametrically estimated instruments to which we apply a standard error correction. We show that the test is (1) always size-correct, (2) consistent when identificat...
متن کاملOn Testing Conditional Moment Restrictions: the Canonical Case
Let (x, z) be a pair of random vectors. We construct a new “smoothed” empirical likelihood based test for the hypothesis that E(z|x) a.s. = 0, and show that the test statistic is asymptotically normal under the null. An expression for the asymptotic power of this test under a sequence of local alternatives is also obtained. The test is shown to possess an optimality property in large samples. S...
متن کاملTesting for Identication in GMM under Conditional Moment Restrictions
This paper proposes a simple test for global identi cation of Generalized Method of Moments (GMM) estimators in models de ned by conditional moment restrictions. The test is based on comparing two estimators, one which is always consistent, even under global identi cation failure of the unconditional model, and the GMM estimator. It is shown that the test is able to detect Pitman alternatives, ...
متن کاملConsistent Parameter Estimation for Conditional Moment Restrictions
In estimating conditional moment restrictions, a well known difficulty is that the estimator based on a set of implied unconditional moments may lose its consistency when the parameters of interest are not globally identified. In this paper, we consider a continuum of unconditional moments that are equivalent to the postulated conditional moments and can identify the parameters of interest. We ...
