Identification and estimation of dynamic structural models with unobserved choices
选择不可观测时动态结构模型的识别与估计
This paper develops identification and estimation methods for dynamic discrete choice models when agents’ actions are unobserved by econometricians. We provide conditions under which choice probabilities and latent state transition rules are nonparametrically identified with a continuous state variable in a single-agent dynamic discrete choice model. Our identification strategy from the baseline model can extend to models with serially correlated unobserved heterogeneity,…
