Abstract: | This article notes that it is now practical to use the method of enumerationto analyse the performance of estimators and hypothesis tests of fullyparametric binary data models. The general method is presented and thenemployed to investigate the power performance of a common misspecificationtest for the Probit model. The advantages, disadvantages and limitations ofenumeration compared with standard Monte Carlo simulation are thendiscussed. Finally, an example from experimental economics is used todemonstrate that the methodology can also be used in small empirical studies. |
