On testing for revealed preference conditions

Author

Listed:
  • Tsur, Yacov

Abstract

A procedure to test for the significance of violations of revealed preference conditions is described. The procedure is simple and hence may especially be appropriate for large data sets. An application to consumption data is presented.
