Recent field evidence suggests a positive link between overconfidence and innovative activities. In this paper we argue that the connection between overconfidence and innovation is more complex than the previous literature suggests. In particular, we show theoretically and experimentally that...

AbstractAlthough moral cleansing—a form of self-regulation—has frequently been studied, existing evidence is mixed and its prerequisites remain unclear. We hypothesize that large, salient deviations from self-defined morality require regulation through moral cleansing, whereas small,...

Numerous signaling models in economics assume image concerns. These take two forms, as relating either to social image or self-image. While empirical work has identified the behavioral importance of the former, little is known about the role of self-image concerns. We exogenously vary self-image...
