Using field and laboratory experiments, we demonstrate that the complexity of incentive schemes and worker bounded … rationality can affect effort provision, by shrouding attributes of the incentives. In our setting, complexity leads workers to … cause large shifts in behavior. Our results illustrate important implications of complexity for designing and regulating …

I discuss some key issues raised by behavioral economics for better understanding the working of the labor market. Amongst the key points in this paper are: (i) a revised modeling of the labor supply curve, with a specific focus on the target income approach (ii) elaborating on the importance of...

I study how boundedly rational agents can learn the solution to an infinite horizon optimal consumption problem under uncertainty and liquidity constraints. I present conditions for the existence of an optimal linear consumption rule and characterize it. Additionally, I use an empirically...

I study how boundedly rational agents can learn a "good" solution to an infinite horizon optimal consumption problem under uncertainty and liquidity constraints. Using an empirically plausible theory of learning I propose a class of adaptive learning algorithms that agents might use to choose a...

Since optimal investment strategies generally cannot be obtained in closed form when consumers exhibit non-constant risk aversion, many dynamic investment studies have focused on the constant risk aversion case. This study considers a general class of dynamic investment models in which agents...
