Research Type Theoretical In this paper, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for when the principal can distinguish between agents of good and bad types, when the type affects the distribution of samples that the agent has access to. We also study the computational complexity of checking these conditions. Finally, we study how many samples are needed.
