We consider the question whether top tennis players in a top tournament (Wimbledon) employ an optimal (efficient) service strategy. While we show that top players do not, in general, follow an optimal strategy, our principal result is that the estimated inefficiencies are not large: the...

This study analyzes the testing of cross-equation restrictions within a set of regression equations. Through Monte Carlo experiments we examine the actual size of various asymptotic procedures for testing the poolability hypothesis, i.e., equal slope vectors across individual equations....

We consider the bias of the two-stage least squares (2SLS) estimator in linear instrumental variable regression with only one endogenous regressor. By using asymptotic expansion techniques, we approximate the 2SLS coefficient estimation bias under various scenarios regarding the number and...
