DECONVOLUTING PREFERENCES AND ERRORS: A MODEL FOR BINOMIAL PANEL DATA
分离偏好与误差:二元面板数据模型
In many stated choice experiments researchers observe the random variables V t , X t , and Y t = 1{ U + δ ⊤ X t + ε t < V t }, t ≤ T , where δ is an unknown parameter and U and ε t are unobservable random variables. We show that under weak assumptions the distributions of U and ε t and also the unknown parameter δ can be consistently estimated using a sieved maximum likelihood estimation procedure.
