Much economic activity takes place within the home. Unfortunately, it is difficult to assess the cyclical properties of home production because the available data are too sporadic. Under the assumption that each observation of historical U.S. data on consumption, investment, and hours worked is...

This paper compares the performance of stimulus response (SR) and belief-based learning (BBL) using data from game theory experiments. The environment, extensive form games played in a population setting, is novel in the empirical literature on learning in games. Both the SR and BBL models fit...

This paper considers tests of the transformation parameter of the Box-Cox model when the distribution of the error is unknown. Monte Carlo experiments are carried out to investigate the rejection probabilities of the GMM-based Wald and Lagrange Multiplier (LM) tests when the null hypothesis is...

This paper investigates the finite sample performance of three semiparametric estimators of the Box-Cox model. Two of the semiparametric estimators are the nonlinear two-stage least squares (NL2SLS) estimator proposed by Amemiya and Powell (1981) and a rescaled version (RNL2SLS) proposed by...

In this paper, the conventional test of the Sharpe-Lintner version of the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) are reconsidered. The CAPM is formulated as a Seemingly Unrelated Regression (SUR) system with an adding-up restriction. A statistical framework for conducting the conventional tests is...
