Using a large survey panel that connects household shopping behavior with individual health information, this paper documents correlations between self reported depression and the size and composition of shopping baskets. First, we find that roughly 16% of individuals report suffering from...

Using a large survey that connects shopping behavior with health information, we document correlations between self-reported depression and the size and composition of shopping baskets. We find that 16% of individuals suffer from depression and over 30% of households have at least one member...

We analyze the initial conditions bias in the estimation of brand choice models with structural state dependence. Using a combination of Monte Carlo simulations and empirical case studies of shopping panels, we show that popular, simple solutions that mis-specify the initial conditions are...
