A Note on Parametric and Nonparametric Regression in the Presence of Endogenous Control Variables
A Note on Parametric and Nonparametric Regression in the Presence of Endogenous Control Variables This note argues that nonparametric regression not only relaxes functional form assumptions vis-a-vis parametric regression, but that it also permits endogenous control variables. To control for selection bias or to make an exclusion restriction in instrumental variables regression valid, additiona...
متن کاملA Note on Auctions with Endogenous Participation
In this paper, we study an auction where bidders only know the number of potential applicants. After seeing their values for the object, bidders decide whether or not to enter the auction. Players may not want to enter the auction since they have to pay participation costs. We characterize the optimal bidding strategies for both firstand secondprice sealed-bid auction when participation is endo...
متن کاملA Note on Invariant Random Variables
One method of improving safety of transmissions between simple sensing devices is to assign sets of cryptographic keys to them. Methods of distributions of such keys are called key predistribution schema. The basic probabilistic key predistribution schema from Eschenauer and Gligor (2002) can be described as follows: we have a pool K of cryptographic symmetric keys of cardinality n; each device...
متن کاملA Note on Endogenous Norms in A Theory of Conformity
This paper analyzes conformist tendencies for a population in which individuals gain utility by mimicking the average behavior, characterizing norms by the mean behavior. In so doing, the model extends Bernheim (1994)’s “A Theory of Conformity” by introducing an endogenous mechanism for establishing social norms. The most interesting result is that this extension does not alter the properties o...
متن کاملA Note on Endogenous Link Strength in Directed Communication Networks
We present a model of directed communication network with endogenous link strength. Agents are endowed with a fixed amount of resource which they can distribute over links. They obtain indirect benefit by the path maximizing the product of link strength. In this environment, the wheel architecture is shown to be not only the unique efficient architecture but also the unique Nash architecture. J...
