GENERALIZED EMPIRICAL LIKELIHOOD–BASED MODEL SELECTION CRITERIA FOR MOMENT CONDITION MODELS

This paper proposes model selection criteria (MSC) for unconditional moment models using generalized empirical likelihood (GEL) statistics. The use of GEL-statistics in lieu of J-statistics (in the spirit of Andrews, 1999, Econometrica 67, 543–564; and Andrews and Lu, 2001, Journal of Econometrics 101, 123–164) leads to an alternative interpretation of …
