Instrumental Models and Indirect Encompassing

Abstract

We introduce nonnested hypotheses tests using indirect, simulation-based estimation procedures. We propose different test statistics and carefully examine the corresponding implicit mi hypotheses. A notion of indirect encompassing comes up naturally, which may be compared to the usual encompassing conditions. Then we show how these methods extend standard specification and overidentification tests.
