This paper examines the ways in which Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have changed how we interact socially, and the resulting impact on time allocation and relationships. Specifically, we use regional variation in broadband internet coverage in Japan to examine the impact of...

In this paper, the authors investigate the determinants of weight for leisure in preferences. First, using a dynamic general equilibrium model, they back out the weight for leisure for an unbalanced panel of 52 countries over the period from 1950 to 2009. Then, the authors perform several panel...
