Abstract

In empirical research, one commonly aims to obtain evidence in favor of re-
strictions on parameters, appearing as an economic hypothesis, a consequence of
economic theory, or an econometric modeling assumption. I propose a new theoret-
ical framework based on the Kullback-Leibler information to assess the approximate
validity of multivariate restrictions in parametric models. I construct tests that are
locally asymptotically maximin and locally asymptotically uniformly most powerful
invariant. The tests are applied to three different empirical problems.
