Many simulation experiments have shown that, in a variety of circumstances, bootstrap tests perform better than current … asymptotic theory predicts. Specifically, the discrepancy between the actual rejection probability of a bootstrap test under the … which bootstrap procedures can be improved so as to yield more accurate inference. …

the others are based on inverting t statistics or the bootstrap P values associated with them. We propose a new method for … constructing bootstrap confidence sets based on t statistics. In large samples, the procedures that generally work best are CLR … confidence sets using asymptotic critical values and bootstrap confidence sets based on LIML estimates. …

Bayesians and non-Bayesians, often called frequentists, seem to be perpetually at logger- heads on fundamental questions of statistical inference. This paper takes as agnostic a stand as is possible for a practising frequentist, and tries to elicit a Bayesian answer to questions of interest to...

Two procedures are proposed for estimating the rejection probabilities of bootstrap tests in Monte Carlo experiments … without actually computing a bootstrap test for each replication. These procedures are only about twice as expensive (per … replication) as estimating rejection probabilities for asymptotic tests. Then a new procedure is proposed for computing bootstrap …
