Second Order Pseudo-Maximum Likelihood Estimation and Conditional VarianceMisspecification.
In this paper, we study the behaviour of second order pseudo-maximum likelihood estimators under conditional variance misspecification. We first determine sufficient and essentially necessary conditions for such an estimator to be, regardless of the conditional variance (mis)specification, consistent for the mean parameters when the conditional mean is correctly specified.
