Models of unordered choice typically assume that all agents can choose freely among a known set of choices. Such models have been applied to many problems, including job choice, migration, party switching by politicians, and most frequently, consumer choice. However, in many cases, some choices are excluded from the choice set, though this exclusion is unobserved by the analyst. In this paper, I show how unobserved variation in choice sets can bias estimates from choice models and offer a method that will correct for this bias. The method estimates both predictors of the components of the choice set as well as predictors of choice from whatever options are available. ∗Thanks to Alex Braithwaite for useful suggestions
