The Empirical Content of Nash-Bargained Household Behavior

McElroy, Marjorie B.·1990·The Journal of Human Resources

Abstract

In households whose allocation decisions can be represented as Nash-bargained household decisions, extrahousehold environmental parameters (EEPs) serve as pure shifters of the threat points. The comparative statics of changes in demands due to changes in these EEPs are given. These are incorporated into a comprehensive statement of the empirical content of Nash-bargained household behavior, including a Nash generalization of Barten's (1966) fundamental matrix equation of the theory of consumer demand. Estimation and data requirements are discussed along with nested testing of the following structure: the neoclassical model is nested in the Nash-bargained model which, in turn, is nested in an unrestricted model of household demands. Emphasized throughout is the enriched menu of explanatory variables for demand analysis provided by the Nash model, as well as the model's ability to jointly analyze (i) household formation and (ii) intrahousehold allocation decisions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
