dc.description.abstractUsing a robust method of discrete choice analysis proposed by Barseghyan (2021), I estimate parents’ preferences in the context of school choice. To account for information costs, I develop a model where parents only know about a subset of all available schools. Choice sets are unobservable and can have different sizes. I partially identify my model using Pre-K applications from Chile’s new centralized school admissions system. My results suggest that current assumptions on the observability of agents’ choice sets are too strong. However, the estimation method I use lacks computational tractability, so the challenge of finding an alternative approach to estimate parents’ preferences in contexts of incomplete information remains.
