In the paper we describe in detail how to build linked CGE-microsimulation models (using fictitious data) following … the three models. Results show that all three approaches yield different results especially in terms of income … distribution and poverty, although analysed within the same economy and under the same policy simulation. We then analyse in more …

Our goal in this chapter is to explain concretely how to implement simulation methods in a very general class of models … that are extremely useful in applied work: dynamic discrete choice models where one has available a panel of multinomial … class of models that includes static discrete choice models, the Heckman (1976) selection model, and all of the Heckman …

We discuss computational issues in the sequential probit model that have limited its use in applied research. We estimate parameters of the model by the method of simulated likelihood and by Bayesian MCMC algorithms. We provide Monte Carlo evidence on the relative performance of both estimators....

The paper introduces four unbiased probability-simulators which produce continuous (simulated) log-likelihood functions with almost everywhere continuous derivatives. Identification conditions are derived which show that in the presence of intercepts in the latent utilities, then the shocks'...

We propose a simulated maximum likelihood estimator for dynamic models based on non-parametric kernel methods. Our … method is designed for models without latent dynamics from which one can simulate observations but cannot obtain a closed … dynamic models that this nonparametric simulated maximum likelihood (NPSML) estimator is consistent and asymptotically …

The paper derives analytical transitions probabilities following an exogenous shock to the deterministic component in the conditional logit model. The solution draws on the postestimation distribution of the model's stochastic component, identified on the basis of a direct utility maximization...
