摘要:In many settings, a person's outcome depends not only on her own behavior, but also on her counterpart's. Such strategic decisions have traditionally been studied using normative game theory, which assumes that people adopt equilibrium strategies and will reach the same decision, regardless of how the problem is described (framed). We examine a potentially important type of framing effect-focusing on how the relationship between players' actions generates joint outcomes. Any strategic interact...

摘要:Approximate linear programs (ALPs) are well-known models based on value function approximations (VFAs) to obtain policies and lower bounds on the optimal policy cost of discounted-cost Markov decision processes (MDPs). Formulating an ALP requires (i) basis functions, the linear combination of which defines the VFA, and (ii) a state relevance distribution, which determines the relative importance of different states in the ALP objective for the purpose of minimizing VFA error. Both of these cho...

摘要:Left unable to provide service during the COVID-19 pandemic, many small businesses have experimented with alternative ways of generating income. One approach that has gained traction is the use of advance selling, whereby the firm asks consumers in its local community to support the business by paying in advance for consumption at a future date. In this paper, we develop a game theoretic model to investigate whether and how advance selling schemes can be successfully implemented by firms facin...

摘要:Although clinical artificial intelligence (AI) systems can augment medical diagnosis decisions by providing competent second opinions, how to effectively integrate AI into routine diagnostic processes, such as when to present AI advice to human physicians, remains largely unexplored. Therefore, our research experimentally examines how the timing of AI advice affects diagnostic decision making using a think-aloud approach. Physicians perform medical diagnoses under three conditions: ex post adv...

摘要:Collaborative customization is common in many markets. Sellers and customers can collectively discover the value of the product's basic design. Customers' willingness to pay can also be increased by being engaged to improve the product design. We study how a seller can design the information structure of collective learning about the product's basic value to induce costly customer engagement. We consider a setting in which the parties' expected payoffs are determined endogenously through the s...

摘要:One may reasonably think that cultural homophily, defined as the tendency to associate with others of similar culture, affects collaboration in multinational teams in general but not in superstar teams of professionals at the top of their industry. The analysis of an exhaustive data set on the passes made by professional European football players in the top five men's leagues reveals that on the contrary, cultural homophily is persistent, pervasive, and consequential, even in superstar multina...

摘要:We study the role of correlation in matching markets, where multiple decision makers simultaneously face selection problems from the same pool of candidates. We propose a model in which a candidate's priority scores across different decision makers exhibit varying levels of correlation dependent on the candidate's sociodemographic group. Such differential correlation can arise in school choice because of the varying prevalence of selection criteria, in college admissions because of test-option...

摘要:We examine how variations in nonfinancial terms across bonds from the same issuer, referred to as issuer term variability (ITV), relate to bond yield spreads, returns, and investor bases. Our findings show that ITV is positively associated with yield spreads, even after accounting for the issuer's credit ratings and other credit risk proxies. Additionally, bonds with high ITV exhibit greater default risk but deliver lower risk-adjusted returns compared with those with low ITV. We also find tha...

摘要:Data show that 72% of the earnings announcement premium is realized before, rather than after, earnings releases. We propose that uncertainty risk resolution before the announcement leads to large pre-announcement returns and test the uncertainty risk resolution hypothesis in the cross section. Compelling empirical evidence supports this hypothesis: an interquartile increase in the firm's uncertainty level is associated with a 6.3% greater uncertainty reduction and 0.65% higher market-adjusted...
