Mean-variance econometric analysis of household portfolios (replication data)
We investigate households' portfolio choice using a microeconometric approach derived from mean-variance optimization. We assume that households have heterogeneous expectations... -
Participation and study decisions in a public system of higher education (rep...
We analyze the decision whether to participate and where and what to study in a public system of higher education, based on a unique dataset of all eligible high school pupils... -
Dynamic treatment effect analysis of TV effects on child cognitive developmen...
We investigate whether TV watching at ages 6-7 and 8-9 affects cognitive development measured by math and reading scores at ages 8-9, using a rich childhood longitudinal sample... -
A test for multimodality of regression derivatives with application to nonpar...
This paper presents a method to test for multimodality of an estimated kernel density of derivative estimates from a nonparametric regression. The test is included in a study of... -
Consumer price evaluations through choice experiments (replication data)
We collect experimental choice data and estimate preferences for mobile phones with a special focus on measuring consumer price evaluations when consumers face difficult choice... -
Bayesian estimation of random-coefficients choice models using aggregate data...
This article discusses the use of Bayesian methods for estimating logit demand models using aggregate data. We analyze two different demand systems: independent samples and... -
Modeling category-level purchase timing with brand-level marketing variables ...
Purchase timing of households is usually modeled at the category level. However, many potential explanatory variables are observed at the brand level. To explain interpurchase... -
Frugal IV alternatives to identify the parameter for an endogenous regressor ...
A review of the econometric literature on instrumental variables (IV) estimation shows that the performance of traditional IV estimation relies critically on the quality of the... -
Measuring marketing-mix effects in the 32/64 bit video-game console market (r...
We investigate the short- and long-run effects of prices and software availability on the category-level diffusion of 32/64-bit video-game consoles in the USA. We adopt an... -
The price consideration model of brand choice (replication data)
The workhorse brand choice models in marketing are the multinomial logit (MNL) and nested multinomial logit (NMNL). These models place strong restrictions on how brand share and... -
Do randomized-response designs eliminate response biases? An empirical study ...
Out of the toolbox of survey methods for obtaining honest answers to sensitive issues, the method of randomized responses (RR) has proven to be the most effective one. So far,... -
Learning and fatigue during choice experiments: a comparison of online and ma...
This study investigates the effect of survey mode on respondent learning and fatigue during repeated choice experiments. Stated preference data are obtained from an experiment... -
Inferring disability status from corrupt data (replication data)
In light of widespread concerns about the reliability of self-reported disability, we investigate what can be learned about the prevalence of work disability under various... -
From temporary help jobs to permanent employment: what can we learn from matc...
The diffusion of temporary work agency (TWA) jobs has led to a harsh policy debate and ambiguous empirical evidence. Results for the USA, based on quasi-experimental evidence,... -
Sequential numerical integration in nonlinear state space models for microeco...
This paper discusses the estimation of a class of nonlinear state space models including nonlinear panel data models with autoregressive error components. A health economics... -
A bounds analysis of school completion rates in Australia (replication data)
Official estimates of school completion rates in Australia increased in the 1980s, peaked in 1992, and fell immediately thereafter before stabilizing. The official estimates... -
The interrelated dynamics of unemployment and low-wage employment (replicatio...
This paper examines the extent of state dependence in unemployment and the role played in this by intervening low-wage employment. A range of dynamic random and fixed-effects... -
A discrete-choice model with social interactions: with an application to high...
We develop an empirical discrete-choice interaction model with a finite number of agents. We characterize its equilibrium properties-in particular the correspondence between... -
Correcting for bias in retrospective data (replication data)
When panel data are not available, retrospective data are used in the estimation of dynamic choice models. However, retrospective data are not reliable. Previous studies of... -
Nonparametric estimation of a hedonic price function (replication data)
Rosen's (1974) theory of hedonic prices is implemented econometrically using recently developed nonparametric techniques to examine the influence of qualitative factors on the...
