摘要:The Allais critique of expected utility theory (EUT) has led to the development of theories of choice under risk that relax the independence axiom but adhere to the fundamental/conventional axioms of ordering (completeness and transitivity) and monotonicity (with respect to first-order stochastic dominance). Unlike experimental work designed to test independence, our experiment is comprehensive, testing the entire set of axioms on which EUT is based. Our econometric analysis is also nonparamet...

摘要:This paper examines three influential papers by Lucas that have become essential references in the economic literature. The first paper explores the size distributions of firms, while the other two investigate the relationship between firms' investments, their valuations, and their rates of growth. These seminal papers have inspired numerous subsequent studies, significantly advancing our understanding of firm dynamics and investment behavior.

摘要:We develop a method to jointly measure the response of worker search effort (micro effect) and vacancy creation (macro effect) to changes in the duration of unemployment insurance (UI) benefits. To implement this approach, we exploit an unexpected cut in UI durations in Missouri and provide quasi-experimental evidence on the effect of UI on the labor market. In our baseline specification, the data indicate that the cut in Missouri increased job-finding rates by 12% by raising firm vacancy crea...

摘要:The scientific community assigns credit or priority to individuals who publish an important discovery first. We examine the impact of losing a priority race (colloquially known as getting scooped) on publication and career outcomes. To do so, we analyze data from structural biology where the nature of the scientific process together with the Protein Data Bank enables us to identify priority races and their outcomes. We find that scooped teams are less likely to publish in top journals and rece...
