Abstract
The Lagrange multiplier test of the restrictions for a simple but common class of rational expectations model is developed. For these kinds of models the value of this test will never exceed the likelihood ratio. The difference is usually small, because Monte Carlo evidence suggests that it performs similarly to the likelihood ratio and Wald tests in small samples. However, an economic example suggests that larger differences are possible.
