A Test for Comparing Multiple Misspecified Conditional Distributions

This paper introduces a conditional Kolmogorov test, in the spirit of Andrews (1997), that allows for comparison of multiple misspecifed conditional distribution models, for the case of dependent observations. A conditional confidence interval version of the test is also discussed. Model accuracy is measured using a distributional analog of mean square error, in which the squared (approximation) error associated with a given model, say model i; is measured in terms of the average over U of E((Fi(u
