A new year, a new you? : heterogeneity and self-control in food purchases

Cherchye, Laurens; Rock, Bram de; Griffith, Rachel; … - 2017

We document considerable within-person (over time) variation in diet quality that is not fully explained by responses to fluctuations in the economic environment. We propose a two-selves model that provides a structural interpretation to this variation, in which food choices are a compromise...

Opening the black box of intra-household decision-making : theory and non-parametric empirical tests of general collective consumption models

Cherchye, Laurens (contributor); Rock, Bram de (contributor) - 2005

We non-parametrically test a general collective consumption model with public consumption and externalities inside the household. We further propose a novel approach to model special cases of the general collective model. These special cases include alternative restrictions on the 'sharing rule'...

Contraction consistent stochastic choice correspondence

Dasgupta, Indraneel - 2009

We model a general choice environment via probabilistic choice correspondences, with (possibly) incomplete domain and infinite universal set of alternatives. We offer a consistency restriction regarding choice when the feasible set contracts. This condition, 'contraction consistency', subsumes...
