Nonparametric identification and estimation of a class of common value auctio...
Structural econometric studies on auctions have mainly focused on the independent private value paradigm. In this paper, we are interested in the opposite case known as the pure... -
Approximation of Nash equilibria in Bayesian games (replication data)
We define a new concept of constrained strategic equilibrium (CSE) for Bayesian games. We show that a sequence of CSEs approximates an equilibrium under standard conditions. We... -
Quantifying the supply-side benefits from forward contracting in wholesale el...
The assumption of expected profit-maximizing bidding behavior in a multi-unit, multi-period auction with step-function supply curves is used to estimate cost functions for... -
Complementarities in automobile production (replication data)
The number of different car and light truck models produced in North America has increased enormously over the last decades. The data suggests that producing this increased... -
Statistical inference for aggregates of Farrell-type efficiencies (replicatio...
In this study, we merge results of two recent directions in efficiency analysis research-aggregation and bootstrap-applied, as an example, to one of the most popular point... -
Semi-structural models of advertising competition (replication data)
We propose a semi-structural discrete-choice model that can be used to estimate static or dynamic decision rules. It is particularly useful in strategic contexts when games... -
Bargaining powers and market segmentation in freight transport (replication d...
The heterogeneity of services in the freight transport market and the presence of imperfect information motivate the development of an empirical model for detecting market... -
Consumer benefits from increased competition in shopping outlets: Measuring t...
Non-traditional retail outlets, including supercenters, warehouse club stores, and mass merchandisers, have nearly doubled their share of consumer food-at-home expenditures in... -
Concessions of infrastructure in Latin America: Government-led renegotiation ...
This paper analyzes government-led renegotiations in infrastructure concession contracts in Latin America, based on the same sample used in Guasch, Laffont and Straub (2003) to... -
The relationship between R&D collaboration, subsidies and R&D perform...
This study focuses on the impact of innovation policies and R&D collaboration in Germany and Finland. We consider collaboration and subsidies as heterogeneous treatments,... -
Finite sample inference methods for dynamic energy demand models (replication...
This paper considers finite sample motivated inference methods in dynamic energy demand models, in which case commonly used econometric methods remain asymptotic. We focus on... -
Estimating market power in a two-sided market: The case of newspapers (replic...
The newspaper industry is a two-sided market: the readers market and the advertising market are closely linked by inter-market network externalities. We estimate market power in... -
Convergence of productivity: a comment (replication data)
We find that an important programming error was made by Hobijn and Franses (2000) in conducting multivariate stationarity tests. The empirical results in their paper are subject... -
Cannabis, cocaine and jobs (replication data)
This paper uses a dataset collected among inhabitants of Amsterdam, to study the employment effects of the use of cannabis and cocaine. For females no negative effects of drug... -
The Engel curve for alcohol and the rank of demand systems (replication data)
This paper shows that the quadratic shape of the Engel curve for alcohol is induced by preference heterogeneity between drinkers and abstainers in a Japanese data set. With... -
The costs of motherhood: an analysis using matching estimators (replication d...
We estimate the effect of motherhood on wages using matching. We distinguish between net and direct effects. The net effect includes the total wage costs, whereas the direct... -
The effect of household characteristics on living standards in South Africa 1...
This paper examines whether the dismantling of apartheid has resulted in an improvement in the standard of living for the vast majority of South Africans. The study is based on... -
The welfare effects of restricted hospital choice in the US medical care mark...
Managed care health insurers in the USA restrict their enrollees' choice of hospitals to within specific networks. This paper considers the implications of these restrictions. A... -
Age–period–cohort decomposition of aggregate data: an application to US and J...
This paper compares two methods of analyzing aggregate data that is classified by period and age. Because there is a linear relationship among age, period, and cohort, it is not... -
Bayesian analysis of the two-part model with endogeneity: application to heal...
This paper studies the effect of managed care on medical expenditure using a model in which the insurance status is assumed to be endogenous. Insurance plan choice is modeled...
