以历史选择作为实际考虑集的 Logit 模型一致估计AI 解读

A key challenge in choice modeling lies in specifying the consideration set, the subset of alternatives that individuals actually evaluate when making choices, which is unobserved (latent) to the researcher. The classical homo economicus assumption posits that individuals assess the full universal set of alternatives, a behaviorally implausible premise. Practical options include directly asking individuals, which introduces behavioral biases; treating the consideration set…

Crawford's et al. (2021) article on estimation of discrete choice models with unobserved or latent consideration sets, presents a unified framework to address the problem in practice by using "sufficient sets", defined as a combination of past observed choices. The proposed approach is sustained in a re-interpretation of a consistency result by McFadden (1978) for the problem of sampling of alternatives, but the usage of that result in Crawford et al. (2021) is imprecise in…
