Beliefs that Entertain

Gandhi, Ashvin; Giuliano, Paola; Guan, Eric; Keefer, … - 2024

Economic research on entertainment is scant despite its large share of time use. We test economic theories of belief-based utility in the context of video-game engagement. Using data on 2.8 million matches from League of Legends, we find evidence supporting reference-dependent preferences, loss...

Work and Leisure in the U.S. And Europe : Why so Different?

Alesina, Alberto; Glaeser, Edward L.; Sacerdote, Bruce - 2021

Americans average 25.1 working hours per person in working age per week, but the Germans average 18.6 hours. The average American works 46.2 weeks per year, while the French average 40 weeks per year. Why do western Europeans work so much less than Americans? Recent work argues that these...

Income, Leisure, and Happiness

van Hoorn, André - 2020

The income-leisure trade-off, whilst prominent in textbooks, is largely absent in the income-happiness debate. Multilevel or hierarchical linear modeling is introduced and used to investigate the income-leisure-happiness nexus. Leisure has a positive effect on happiness, but lowers the effect of...

Speculating on Home Improvements

22 The Impact of New Technology on Leisure Networks

Fitzsimons, Vincent G. - 2011

Networks are often considered when embedded in systems of production or consumption, but they are also of considerable value in themselves, as they underpin social interaction and social leisure activities. The nature of leisure has changed considerably over time, sometimes due to the costs of...

Short Run Constraints and the Increasing Marginal Value of Time in Recreation

Palmquist, Raymond B. - 2009

Leisure activities such as local recreation trips usually take place in discrete blocks of time that are surrounded by time devoted to other commitments. It can be costly to transfer time between blocks to allow for longer outings. These observations affect the value of time within those blocks...

On the relation between income inequality and happiness : do fairness perceptions matter?

Bjørnskov, Christian; Dreher, Axel; Fischer, Justina A. V. - 2009

In this paper, we revisit the association between happiness and inequality. We argue that the perceived fairness of the income generation process affects this association. Building on a two-period model of individual life-time utility maximization, we predict that persons with higher perceived...

A long tradition in economics explores the association between the quality of formal institutions and economic performance. The literature on the relationship between such institutions and happiness is, however, rather limited. In this paper, we revisit the findings from recent cross-country...
