This meta-analysis synthesizes 4,521 elasticity estimates drawn from 413 studies to examine the presence of publication and endogeneity bias in the literature. We coded over 100 study-level variables to assess how electricity consumers respond to price changes. Our results show that electricity...

We investigate behavioral responses to the generosity of Disability Insurance (DI) within the context of work compatibility. Exploiting an institutional discontinuity leading to exogenous variation in replacement rates, we use rich administrative data on the work and health histories of Italian...

Conventional methods for assessing competitiveness capture a limited reflection of market adaptability. This limitation needs to be addressed in light of the volatile geopolitical context and shifting trade policies, which shape an environment in which resilience is a fundamental component of...

We identify supply and demand shocks to the real price of natural gas in the Euro Area and the United States. Demand shocks are identified using exogenous temperature variations, while supply shocks are identified through a high-frequency strategy based on an extensive collection of...

We use variation in marginal tax rates and in tax bracket thresholds at which they apply in order to identify the substitution and income effects of tax reforms. We use a triple-difference estimator that exploits variation from subnational tax reforms, for which behavioral responses to taxes are...

This article investigates household consumption in 2011 and 2021, to see if there is evidence of changes in household demands of food. The European policy from Farm to Fork aims at providing sustainable, healthy food for all consumers, through an increase in vegetable consumption at the expense...

This study estimates and decomposes recruitment elasticity, a key measure of employer market power, across job-matching stages using data from Japan's largest job-matching intermediary. On average, recruitment elasticity is negative but not statistically significantly different from zero....

We investigate long-run earnings responses to taxes in the presence of dynamic returns to effort. First, we develop a theoretical model of earnings determination with dynamic returns to effort. In this model, earnings responses are delayed and mediated by job switches. Second, using...

Macroeconomic productivity is modelled as a Cobb-Douglas function of private and public R&D stocks in recent literature. The slope parameters of a growth rate version may change over time and with circumstances. Using the method of functional-coefficient regression, we show that human capital,...

In this paper, we study perpetual American put options with a generalized standard put payoff and establish sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of the solution to the associated pricing problem. As a key tool, we express the Black-Scholes operator in terms of elasticity. This...

We study how the division of household chores and individual preferences contribute to gender differences in labor supply elasticities and examine the implications for optimal taxation. In a model of labor supply in dual-earner households, we show that elasticities and optimal income tax rates...

A key challenge in modeling water scarcity in computable general equilibrium (CGE) models is getting the substitution elasticity between water and the other inputs right. This paper develops a novel method to derive the values of the substitution elasticity between water and land by implementing...

This study offers a comprehensive disaggregated analysis of energy demand in Cameroon, employing Auto-Regressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) and Partial Adjustment Model (PAM) methodologies to explore both short- and long-term determinants. By examining a range of energy sources-including...

The long-expected wave of LNG supply is now almost upon us, and is expected to outstrip the rise in demand for LNG. Spot prices, in European and Asian markets, may respond to the overhang of supply by moving to more short-run pricing – as was seen in 2019 and 2020 – and, as a result, prices...

Most studies on the labor market effects of immigration use repeated cross-sectional data to estimate the effects of immigration on regions. This paper shows that such regional effects are composites of effects that address fundamental questions in the immigration debate but remain unidentified...

Transport is among the fastest-growing contributors to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, where rapid urbanization, population growth, and high mobility demand continue to shape energy use. This study aims to quantify the extent to which economic growth...

The timing of payment can enhance salience, making customers more price-responsive when paying before consumption rather than after. This study examines Indonesia's nationwide switch to prepaid electricity metering, impacting over 40 million households. We find that prepaid metering users are...

We develop a tractable equilibrium model of the labour market, featuring heterogeneous labour supply elasticities across occupations that can be estimated in a baseline period using observed worker flows. We use this model to study the heterogeneous impact of subsequent demand shifts on wages...

This study seeks to test the validity of the Marshall-Lerner (M-L) condition between Egypt and BRICS countries (five countries: Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) to determine which industries will benefit from depreciation in the long run by employing the import and export models...

The U.S. natural gas market is crucial for domestic energy and increasingly important in global trade. Structural analyses of this market often adapt oil market models but overlook key features, such as external trade flows, potentially limiting their ability to fully capture its dynamics. This...

Labor economics often assumes that wages w are equal to the marginal revenue product of labor MRP L. However, recent literature has shown that firms' market power allows them to pay wages substantially below marginal productivity. The markdown (MRP L - w)/w is our preferred measure of firms'...

Economic growth is often associated with welfare gains through job creation. However, the number and quality of new job opportunities created in a growing economy vary across countries and sectors, due in great part to changes in labor productivity. This paper provides estimates of country and...
