This paper examines the asymptotic behavior of the posterior distribution of a possibly nondifferentiable function g(theta), where is a finite dimensional parameter. The main assumption is that the distribution of the maximum likelihood estimator theta_n, its bootstrap approximation, and the...

We characterize the symmetric Nash equilibria of the symmetric voter participation game with complete information introduced by Palfrey and Rosenthal (1983). Our results con rm their conjecture on the existence, multiplicity, and comparative statics of such equilibria and yield more precise...
