Abstract
We present a simple-to-compute but powerful specification test for the distribution of the composite error term in the stochastic frontier model, that can test for noise distributions with non-zero excess kurtosis. This testing framework offers researchers the opportunity to test for a much wider array of distributional pairs than currently existing tests. This will potentially allow more robust modeling decisions in practice.
