This paper uses a twin construct to test how the thickness of the veil of ignorance (VOI) affects the perception of fairness and redistributional choices. A fortune reversal is generally perceived to be fair behind a thick VOI, but deemed unfair behind a transparent VOI, particularly if one is...

In this paper, we propose the use of wavelet covariance and correlation to detect spurious regression. Based on Monte Carlo simulation results and experiments with real exchange rate data, it is shown that the wavelet approach is able to detect spurious relationship in a bivariate time series...
