We characterize the optimal policy and policy instruments for self-enforcing treaties when countries invest in green … regulation over quantity regulation, namely that when regulation is sufficiently flexible to permit firms to react to non-compliance …

The paper reports laboratory experiments on a day-to-day route choice game with two routes. Subjects had to choose between a main road M and a side road S. The capacity was greater for the main road. 18 subjects participated in each session. In equilibrium the number of subjects is 12 on M and 6...

A general framework is described specifying how boundedly rational decision makers generate their choices. Starting from a Master Module which keeps an inventory of previously successful and unsuccessful routines several submodules can be called forth which either allow one to adjust behavior...

Theory of mind and individual preferences are important determinants in social decision making. The current study examined in a large sample whether being a cooperative preference type is related with better theory of mind skills. Furthermore, by testing adolescents and adults, we examined the...

In today's business environment, team work is omnipresent. But might teams be more prone toward non-compliance with … of teams' compliance behavior. In particular, we disentangle the effect of deciding jointly as a team of two from sharing … compliant than individuals are. This drop in compliance is driven by the joint, rather than the individual, liability of team …

We find that compliance remains largely unaffected by complexity when income taxes … taxes appear wasted as they are distributed to a morally dubious charity. Our data further suggest that this non-compliance …

Our … theory shows that the effect of debt cuts on fiscal compliance depends on two effects, the direction of which determines the … overall effect on expected fiscal compliance. We empirically review the plausibility of our theoretical results by exploiting …

This paper develops a tractable model of a society hit by a viral pandemic. It is sufficiently rich so as to relate the optimal decisions of the policymaker to the underlying characteristics of this society, in terms of preferences, social mores and economic structures. This allows us to make...
