We experimentally investigate a legislative bargaining model with both public and particularistic goods. Consistent with the qualitative implications of the model: There is near exclusive public good provision in the pure public good region, in the pure private good region minimum winning...

This paper considers the analysis of data from randomized trials which offer a sequence of interventions and suffer from a variety of problems in implementation. In experiments that provide treatment in multiple periods (T1), subjects have up to 2^{T}-1 counterfactual outcomes to be estimated to...

Propensity score matching is becoming increasingly common in clinical medicine, demographic and economic research for the evaluation of the magnitude of treatment effects. Existing studies generally use parametric estimators of binary response models such as the probit and logit to estimate the...

In conducting experiments with multiple trials, outcomes from previous trials can impact on current behavior. One of the most obvious cases in which this can happen, and the case considered in this paper, is in an auction market experiment, where earnings from previous auction trials alter cash...

Using the Youth in Transition Survey we estimate a Roy model with a three dimensional latent factor structure to consider how parental valuation of education, cognitive skills and non-cognitive skills influence endogenous schooling decisions and subsequent labour market outcomes in Canada. We...

This paper uses a laboratory experiment to study the effect of a monitoring structure on the play of the infinitely repeated prisoner's dilemma. Keeping the stage game fixed, we examine the behavior of subjects when information about past actions is perfect (perfect monitoring), noisy but public...

We study experimentally behavior in a repeated partnership game with public imperfect monitoring, and focus on whether subjects are affected by renegotiation concerns. The signal in our design is rather simple: it indicates only a success or a failure in each period. In some treatments, the...
