OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Testing Inequalities Linear in Nuisance Parameters
This paper proposes a new test for inequalities linear in possibly partially identified nuisance parameters, called the generalized conditional chi-squared (GCC) test. It extends the subvector conditional chi-squared (sCC) test in Cox and Shi (2023, CS23) to a setting where the nuisance parameter is pre-multiplied by an unknown and estimable matrix of coefficients. Properly accounting for the estimation noise in this matrix while maintaining the simplicity of the sCC test is the main innovation of this paper. As such, the paper provides a simple solution to a broad set of problems including subvector inference for models represented by linear programs, nonparametric instrumental variable models with discrete regressor and instruments, and linear unconditional moment inequality models. We also derive a simplified formula for computing the critical value that makes the computation of the GCC test elementary.
