We propose a new measure of deviations from expected utility, given data on economic choices under risk and uncertainty. In a revealed preference setup, and given a positive number e, we provide a characterization of the datasets whose deviation (in beliefs, utility, or perceived prices) is...

One of the main building blocks of economics is the theory of the consumer, which postulates that consumers are utility maximizing. However, from a computational perspective, this model is called into question because the task of utility maximization subject to a budget constraint is...

In this paper we design an econometric test for monotone comparative statics (MCS) often found in models with multiple equilibria. Our test exploits the observable implications of the MCS prediction: that the extreme (high and low) conditional quantiles of the dependent variable increase...
