We propose a robust method of discrete choice analysis when agents' choice sets are unobserved. Our core model assumes nothing about agents' choice sets apart from their minimum size. Importantly, it leaves unrestricted the dependence, conditional on observables, between agents' choice sets and...

We use data on insurance deductible choices to estimate a structural model of risky choice that incorporates "standard" risk aversion (diminishing marginal utility for wealth) and probability distortions. We find that probability distortions - characterized by substantial overweighting of small...

We leverage the assumption that preferences are stable across contexts to par- tially identify and conduct inference on the parameters of a structural model of risky choice. Working with data on households’ deductible choices across three lines of insurance coverage and a model that nests...
