Overview
Denis Bolduc is a professor of economics at GREEN (Groupe de recherche en économie de l'énergie), Université Laval, Quebec, Canada. He is a specialist in discrete choice econometrics, particularly multinomial probit models, and has applied these methods to labor economics questions including workers' compensation moral hazard and physician location decisions.
Key Contributions / Features
- Workers' compensation moral hazard and injury composition (Bolduc, Fortin, Labrecque, and Lanoie 2002): Led estimation of a three-alternative panel logit kernel (hybrid MNP) framework using 9,800 Quebec construction workers monthly, showing WC benefits disproportionately increase difficult-to-diagnose injury reporting.
- Developed and extended panel logit kernel (hybrid multinomial probit) estimation for discrete choice models with random effects (building on Bolduc, Fortin, and Fournier 1996 on physician practice location).
