Study Notes
Multinomial, Conditional, and Mixed Models
- Multinomial outcome dependent variable with categorical, unordered alternatives.
- Data recorded in wide or long format with codes for alternatives.
- Examples of multinomial outcomes include insurance contracts, product selection, occupational choice, and fishing mode.
- Two types of independent variables: alternative-invariant and alternative-variant.
- Multinomial logit model used with alternative-invariant regressors, with coefficients and marginal effects.
- Marginal effects do not necessarily correspond in sign to coefficients.
- Conditional logit model used with both alternative-invariant and alternative-variant regressors, with coefficients and marginal effects.
- Mixed logit model allows for random parameters and correlation across alternatives.
- Coefficient interpretation for regressors in both conditional and mixed logit models.
- Multinomial probit model similar to multinomial logit model, but uses standard normal cdf.
- Marginal effects interpretation: each unit increase in independent variable increases/decreases probability of selecting alternative by the marginal effect expressed as a percent.
- Mixed logit model produces random parameters coefficients for both regressor and standard deviation of regressor, indicating heterogeneity in effect of independent variable on alternative chosen.
