Rural households’ multidimensional poverty is still widespread and severe everywhere. For instance, worldwide a total of 1.45 billion people from 103 countries are multidimensional poor, most MPI poor people (72%) of them live-in middle-income countries. In East Africa, 559 million (42%)...

There are two possible reasons for unionized workers to have lower quit rates than otherwise comparable nonunion workers: unions could organize employees with innately lower propensities to quit or they could reduce propensities by offering disgruntled workers alternatives to quitting in the...

We propose a recursive logit model which captures the notion of choice aversion by imposing a penalty term that accounts for the dimension of the choice set at each node of the transportation network. We make three contributions. First, we show that our model overcomes the correlation problem...

The question of how people revise their decisions about whether to emigrate, and where to, when facing changes in the global environment is of critical importance in migration literature. We propose a cross-nested logit (CNL) approach to generalize the way deviations from the IIA (independence...

This paper develops an algorithm for analyzing discrete events, such as labor market transitions, when some of these transitions are spurious because of measurement errors. Our algorithm extends the standard multinomial logit model, although our basic approach could be used with other stochastic...

We introduce the click-based MNL choice model, a novel framework for capturing customer purchasing decisions in e-commerce settings. We augment the classical Multinomial Logit choice model with the assumption that customers only consider the items they have clicked on before they proceed to...

We estimated the effects of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) scores on the credit ratings of firms in the sectors of manufacturing, mining and quarrying, wholesale and retail trade, information and communication, and real estate activities and located in North America, Europe, and...

The present study has attempted to discuss the association between corporate hedging theories and the usage of foreign currency loans by companies listed in India. A total of 349 non-financial companies were selected, and the data for the financial year ending 31st March, 2018 were considered...

In this paper, we consider an assortment optimization problem in which a platform mustchoose pairwise disjoint sets of assortments to offer across a series of T stages. Arrivingcustomers begin their search process in the first stage and progress sequentially throughthe stages until their...
