Abstract

Abstract stratEst is a software package for strategy frequency estimation in the freely available statistical computing environment R (R Development Core Team in R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, 2022). The package aims at minimizing the start-up costs of running the modern strategy frequency estimation techniques used in experimental economics. Strategy frequency estimation (Stahl and Wilson in J Econ Behav Organ 25: 309–327, 1994; Stahl and Wilson in Games Econ Behav, 10: 218–254, 1995) models the choices of participants in an economic experiment as a finite-mixture of individual decision strategies. The parameters of the model describe the associated behavior of each strategy and its frequency in the data. stratEst provides a convenient and flexible framework for strategy frequency estimation, allowing the user to customize, store and reuse sets of candidate strategies. The package includes useful functions for data processing and simulation, strategy programming, model estimation, parameter testing, model checking, and model selection.

策略频率估计软件包
stratEst是一个在免费提供的统计计算环境R (R Foundation for statistical computing, Vienna, 2022)中进行策略频率估计的软件包。该包旨在最小化运行实验经济学中使用的现代策略频率估计技术的启动成本。策略频率估计(Stahl and Wilson, journal of economic behavior, 25: 309-327, 1994);Stahl和Wilson在《游戏经济行为》(Games economics behavior, 10: 218-254, 1995)中将参与者在经济实验中的选择建模为个体决策策略的有限混合。模型的参数描述了每个策略的相关行为及其在数据中的频率。stratEst为策略频率估计提供了一个方便灵活的框架,允许用户自定义、存储和重用候选策略集。该软件包包括数据处理和仿真、策略规划、模型估计、参数测试、模型检查和模型选择的有用功能。
