Revealed Preference Analysis in Random Limited Attention Models

Description

This has been replaced by revealPref.

Usage

rAtte(
  menu,
  choice,
  pref_list = NULL,
  method = "GMS",
  nCritSimu = 2000,
  BARatio2MS = 0.1,
  BARatio2UB = 0.1,
  MNRatioGMS = NULL,
  RAM = TRUE,
  AOM = TRUE,
  limDataCorr = TRUE,
  attBinary = 1
)

Arguments

menu	Numeric matrix of 0s and 1s, the collection of choice problems.
choice	Numeric matrix of 0s and 1s, the collection of choices.
pref_list	Numeric matrix, each row corresponds to one preference. For example, c(2, 3, 1) means 2 is preferred to 3 and to 1. When set to NULL, the default, c(1, 2, 3, ...), will be used.
method	String, the method for constructing critical values. Default is GMS (generalized moment selection). Other available options are LF (least favorable model), PI (plug-in method), 2MS (two-step moment selection), 2UB (two-step moment upper bound), or ALL (report all critical values).
nCritSimu	Integer, number of simulations used to construct the critical value. Default is 2000.
BARatio2MS	Numeric, beta-to-alpha ratio for two-step moment selection method. Default is 0.1.
BARatio2UB	Numeric, beta-to-alpha ratio for two-step moment upper bound method. Default is 0.1.
MNRatioGMS	Numeric, shrinkage parameter. Default is sqrt(1/log(N)), where N is the sample size.
RAM	Boolean, whether the restrictions implied by the RAM of Cattaneo et al. (2020) should be incorporated, that is, their monotonic attention assumption (default is TRUE).
AOM	Boolean, whether the restrictions implied by the AOM of Cattaneo et al. (2022) should be incorporated, that is, their attention overload assumption (default is TRUE).
limDataCorr	Boolean, whether assuming limited data (default is TRUE). When set to FALSE, will assume all choice problems are observed. This option only applies when RAM is set to TRUE.
attBinary	Numeric, between 1/2 and 1 (default is 1), whether additional restrictions (on the attention rule) should be imposed for binary choice problems (i.e., attentive at binaries).

Value

sumStats	Summary statistics, generated by sumData.
constraints	Matrices of constraints, generated by genMat.
Tstat	Test statistic.
critVal	Critical values.
pVal	P-values (only available for GMS, LF and PI).
method	Method for constructing critical value.
