This paper studies partial identi cation of latent complementarity in an optimizing model with two goods and binary quantities of each good (buy / don't buy). We provide simple bounds on the fraction of individuals for whom goods are complements/substitutes. Despite using only involve marginal...

This paper takes seriously that the quasilinear utility model is an approximation. We interpret approximation error as arising because individuals are satisficers. We investigate the consequences of individual satisficng for modelling aggregate demand, providing an approximate aggregation...

Applied research often tolerates misspecification in order to reach informative conclusions. We focus on how the degree of misspecification varies with the level of aggregation of data for quasilinear utility models. We present aggregation results formalizing that the model cannot get worse when...

This paper provides partial identification results for latent utility models that satisfy an invariance property on unobservables such as exchangeability. We employ a simple revealed preference argument to "difference out'' unobservables and show that this gives identifying inequalities for...

Individual choices are often inconsistent with economic theories, which has motivated a variety of ways to measure how far choices are from a given theory. Recent work has investigated the correlation between measures of rationality and observable information such as education or income. This...
