A Consistent Bootstrap Procedure for the Maximum Score Estimator

In this paper we study the applicability of the bootstrap to do inference on Manski's maximum score estimator under the full generality of the model. We propose three new, model-based bootstrap procedures for this problem and show their consistency. Simulation experiments are carried out to evaluate their performance and to compare them with subsampling methods. Additionally, we prove a uniform convergence theorem for triangular arrays of random variables coming from binary choice models, which may be of independent interest.
