Halevy (2008) establishes a relation between non-standard behaviors in the domains of risk and time. A decision maker who believes that only present consumption is certain while any future consumption is uncertain exhibits diminishing impatience if and only if her preferences on the risk domain...

It is known that mechanism designers can extract agents' information about competitors' mechanisms in a competing mechanism game. This makes it possible for sellers to punish each other for deviations even when they do not directly observe other sellers' mechanisms. This allows for very...

We study choice between bets on the colors of two balls, where one ball is drawn from each of two urns. Though you are told the same about each urn, you are told very little, so that you are not given any reason to be certain that the compositions are identical. We identify choices that reveal...

We demonstrate how the standard usage of the random incentive system in ambiguity experiments is not incentive compatible if the decision maker is ambiguity averse. We propose a slight modification of the procedure in which the randomization takes place before decisions are made and the state is...

We evaluate Andreoni and Sprenger's (2012) data on choices made from Convex Time Budgets (CTB) for external consistency with the Weak Axiom of Revealed Preference (WARP) relative to the pairwise choice benchmark, and for internal consistency with respect to demand, wealth and impatience...

Abstract This paper reports the results of a Monte Carlo simulation study, which accompanies Marmer, Feir, and Lemieux, "Weak Identification in Fuzzy Regression Discontinuity Designs".

The recent literature on competing mechanisms has devoted a lot of effort at understanding a very complex and abstract issue. In particular, an agent's type in a competitive environment is hard to conceptualize because it depends on information the agent has about what is going on in the rest of...

This paper contains supplemental material for Gao, Hnatkovska, and Marmer (2013) "Limited Participation in International Business Cycle Models: A Formal Evaluation".

This paper provides a dynamic extension of Peters (2010) directed search model. The point is to characterize the evolution of wage outcomes over time. The primary result of that paper, which is reproduced here, is that workers use random application strategies when they are searching for new...

We consider a model where multiple principals repeatedly offer short-term contracts to three or more agents with private information. Under low discounting there exists a simple class of mechanisms that sustains all equilibrium allocations that could be generated by arbitrarily complex...
