It satisfies mild regularity conditions but is otherwise unknown. The paper presents test of the hypothesis that g is the mean of a random variable Y conditional on a covariate X .

متن کاملBest Nonparametric Bounds on Demand Responses by Richard Blundell,
This paper uses revealed preference inequalities to provide the tightest possible (best) nonparametric bounds on predicted consumer responses to price changes using consumer-level data over a finite set of relative price changes. These responses are allowed to vary nonparametrically across the income distribution. This is achieved by combining the theory of revealed preference with the semipara...
متن کاملThe James Blundell Award Lecture 2007: do we really understand immune red cell destruction?
We have learned a great deal about immune red blood cell (RBC) destruction since the elaboration of biochemical/immunological interactions of antibodies, complement and macrophages during the past 50 years. We first learned about the direct lysis of RBCs involving complement. We then learned of the role of the macrophage (particularly in the spleen and the liver) in initiating phagocytosis and ...
متن کاملBIVARIATE ALTERNATIVES TO THE TOBIT MODEL Richard BLUNDELL and Costas MEGHIR*
This paper discusses some generalisations of the Tobit model that allow for distinct processes determining the censoring rule and the continuous observations. The effect of different behavioural assumptions on the econometric model are examined and the alternatives are contrasted. The paper concentrates on diagnostic tests for misspecitication that are appropriate in each of our examples. These...
