Revealed Demand for Country-of-Origin Labeling of Meat in the United States

Taylor, Mykel R.; Tonsor, Glynn T. - In: Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics 38 (2013) 2

Proponents of the U.S. mandatory country-of-origin labeling (MCOOL) law have argued that consumers prefer domestic meat and value labels confirming domestic origin. Following legislation enacted in March 2009, an ex post analysis of demand is possible to evaluate relative costs and benefits of...

A Practical Test for Misspecification in Regression: Functional Form, Separability and Distribution

Rodríguez-Póo, Juan M.; Sperlich, Stefan; Vieu, Philippe - Institut d'Economie et Econométrie, Université de Genève - 2012

null often some structure like separability is imposed on the nonparametric part. In order to address these points we …

Testing the "separability" condition in two-stage nonparametric models of production

Daraio, Cinzia; Simar, Leopold; Wilson, Paul W. - 2015

Simar and Wilson (J. Econometrics, 2007) provided a statistical model that can rationalize two-stage estimation of technical efficiency in nonparametric settings. Two-stage estimation has been widely used, but requires a strong assumption: the second-stage environmental variables cannot affect...

A taxonomy of myopic stability concepts for hedonic games

Sung, Shao Chin; Dimitrov, Dinko - 2005

We present a taxonomy of myopic stability concepts for hedonic games in terms of deviations, and discuss the status of the existence problems of stable coalition structures. In particular, we show that contractual strictly core stable coalition structures always exist, and provide sufficient...

A nonextensive critical phenomenon scenario for quantum entanglement

Tsallis, Constantino; Lamberti, Pedro W.; Prato, Domingo - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 295 (2001) 1, pp. 158-171

We discuss the paradigmatic bipartite spin-12 system having the probabilities (1+3x)/4 of being in the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen fully entangled state |Ψ−〉≡1/2(|↑〉A|↓〉B−|↓〉A|↑〉B) and 3(1−x)/4 of being orthogonal. This system is known to be separable if and only if...

Testing for Separability in Household Models with Heterogeneous Behavior: A Mixture Model Approach

Vakis, Renos; Sadoulet, Elisabeth; de Janvry, Alain; … - Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, … - 2004

Knowing whether a household behaves according to separability or non-separability is needed for the correct modeling of … production decisions. We propose a superior test to those found in the literature on separability by using a mixture distribution … approach to estimate the probability that a farm household behaves according to non-separability, and test that the …
