• Non-Parametric Identification and Testing of Quantal Response Equilibrium

  Staff Working Paper 2024-24 Johannes Hoelzemann, Ryan Webb, Erhao Xie

  We show that the utility function and the error distribution are non-parametrically over-identified under Quantal Response Equilibrium (QRE). This leads to a simple test for QRE. We illustrate our method in a Monte Carlo exercise and a laboratory experiment.
