diversify the composition of the teams, ruling out positive assortative matching. This diversification leads to negative …We analyze the optimal allocation of experts to teams, where experts differ in the precision of their information, and … assortative matching when teams consist of pairs of experts. And when experts' signals are conditionally independent, all teams …

Assortative matching through signals

Poeschel, Friedrich - 2012

Verbindungen zwischen ähnlichen Subjekten sind ein häufig beobachtetes Phänomen. Damit solche Sortierungen in einem Suchmodell auftreten, müssen oft jedoch überraschend starke Bedingungen erfüllt sein. Diese Studie zeigt, dass ein um Signale erweitertes Suchmodell sogar vollkommene...

Assortative matching and search with labour supply and home production

Jacquemet, Nicolas; Robin, Jean-Marc - 2013

We extend the search-matching model of the marriage market of Shimer and Smith (2000) to allow for labor supply and home production. We characterize the steadystate equilibrium when exogenous divorce is the only source of risk. We study nonparametric identification using cross-section data on...

Assortative matching through signals

Poeschel, Friedrich - 2013

When agents do not know where to find a match, they search. However, agents could direct their search to agents who strategically choose a certain signal. Introducing cheap talk to a model of sequential search with bargaining, we find that signals will be truthful if there are mild...

Identifying sorting: in theory

Eeckhout, Jan; Kircher, Philipp - 2009

We argue that using wage data alone, it is virtually impossible to identify whether Assortative Matching between worker and firm types is positive or negative. In standard competitive matching models the wages are determined by the marginal contribution of a worker, and the marginal contribution...

Foster care: A dynamic matching approach

Mac Donald, Diana E. - 2023

This paper studies the two-sided dynamic matching problem that occurs in the US foster care system. In this market, foster parents and foster children can form reversible matches, which may separate, continue in their reversible state, or transition to permanency via adoption. I first present an...

Price setting in a decentralized market and the competitive outcome

Lauermann, Stephan - 2008

This paper studies a decentralized, dynamic matching and bargaining market: buyers and sellers are matched into pairs. Traders exit the market at a constant rate, inducing search costs (frictions). All price offers are made by sellers. Despite the fact that sellers have all the bargaining power...

Competitive equilibria in decentralized matching with incomplete information

Atakan, Alp E. - 2007

This paper shows that all perfect Bayesian equilibria of a dynamic matching game with two-sided incomplete information of independent private values variety converge to competitive equilibria. Buyers purchase a bundle of heterogeneous, indivisible goods and sellers own one unit of an indivisible...
