We study a simultaneous, complete-information game played by p = 1 P agents.Each p has an ordinal decision variable Y p ∈ A p = {0 1 M p }, where M p can be unbounded, A p is p's action space, and each element in A p is an action, that is, a potential value for Y p .The collective action space is the Cartesian product A = P p=1 A p .A profile of actions y ∈ A is a Nash equilibrium (NE) profile if y is played with positive probability in some existing NE.Assuming that we observe NE behavior in the data, we characterize bounds for the probability that a prespecified y in A is a NE profile.Comparing the resulting upper bound with Pr[Y = y] (where Y is the observed outcome of the game), we also obtain a lower bound for the probability that the underlying equilibrium selection mechanism M E chooses a NE where y is played given that such a NE exists.Our bounds are nonparametric, and they rely on shape restrictions on payoff functions and on the assumption that the researcher has ex ante knowledge about the direction of strategic interaction (e.g., that for q = p, higher values of Y q reduce p's payoffs).Our results allow us to investigate whether certain action profiles in A are scarcely observed as outcomes in the data because they are rarely NE profiles or because M E rarely selects such NE.Our empirical illustration is a multiple entry game played by Home Depot and Lowe's.
有序随机效用模型中参数假设的可检验含义
We establish the testable implications of ordered random utility models under nonparametric, semi-nonparametric, and parametric assumptions. After characterizing these models in a continuous setting and in the absence of fundamental parametric restrictions, we show that assumptions about the type distribution alone are immaterial, while assumptions about the map linking types to utilities are relevant only insofar as they restrict the class of utilities at stake.…
劳动者侧歧视:信念与偏好
When agents choose among options with unobserved attributes to maximize expected utility, their choices conflate preferences with beliefs about those attributes. We develop a novel theory-driven identification strategy for such settings, showing that compensating differentials separately identify beliefs from preferences. Noting that workers’ preferences and beliefs shape labor market outcomes, yet remain understudied, we apply our method to provide the first evidence on the…
BLP 模型中的条件矩估计与推断
The random-coefficient demand model of Berry, Levinsohn, and Pakes (1995) is commonly estimated by the generalized method of moments (GMM), using an unconditional moment restriction with a fixed set of instruments. Identification of the model, however, rests on a conditional moment restriction. The two are not equivalent: the unconditional restriction may admit additional parameter values. We construct a counterexample in which the model is identified by the conditional…
从密集网格到有效推断:非参数随机系数模型的正则化偏差处理
This paper develops an inference procedure for average functionals of random-coefficient distributions, such as mean willingness-to-pay and average elasticities, when the distribution is estimated nonparametrically using the penalized fixed-grid estimator of Heiss, Hetzenecker, and Osterhaus (2022). We establish asymptotic normality of the corresponding penalized plug-in estimator centered at the functional evaluated at the penalized pseudo-true value and propose a…
基于微观数据的一致半非参数需求估计
This paper develops a profiled sieve minimum-distance estimator for a semi-nonparametric differentiated-products demand model with micro-level choice data. Building on Berry and Haile (2024), the estimator uses within-market variation in consumer covariates to recover a flexible consumer-heterogeneity function and market-specific composite intercepts. Excluded price instruments then separate these intercepts into a flexible price-side function and structural demand shocks.…
从联合分析数据学习偏好:结构模型与深度学习的混合方法
Conjoint experiments randomize multidimensional profiles, yet political science applications typically report only nonparametric averages that do not recover counterfactual choices or individual tradeoffs. We develop a hybrid structural approach for recovering individual preferences from conjoint data. The estimator combines a flexible machine-learning mean preference function, via a deep netural network in our applications, with respondent-level empirical-Bayes updating in…
