This paper develops a lifecycle collective model of the household, through which it characterises behaviour in three prominent alternative types of commitment: full, limited, and no commitment. We propose a test that distinguishes between all three types based on how contemporaneous and historical news affect household behaviour. Our test permits heterogeneity in the degree of commitment across households. Using recent data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, we reject full and no commitment, while we find strong evidence for limited commitment. 000136173 540__ $$9info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess$$aAll rights reserved$$uhttp://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 000136173 655_4 $$ainfo:eu-repo/semantics/article$$vinfo:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion 000136173 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-0553-6360$$aVelilla, Jorge$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000136173 700__ $$aChiappori, Pierre-André 000136173 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-1610-5451$$aGiménez-Nadal, J Ignacio$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000136173 700__ $$0(orcid)0000-0002-9437-4606$$aMolina, José Alberto$$uUniversidad de Zaragoza 000136173 7102_ $$14000$$2415$$aUniversidad de Zaragoza$$bDpto.
