We generalize the Rubinstein (1982) bargaining model by disentangling payoff delay from bargaining delay. We show that … respect to time discounting. All bargaining takes place within a single experimental session, so bargaining delay is …

We provide causal evidence that patience is a significant source of bargaining power. Generalizing the Rubinstein (1982 …) bargaining model to arbitrarily non-stationary discounting, we first show that dynamic consistency across bargaining rounds is … bargaining delay is negligible (frequent offers, so dynamic consistency holds by design), while payoff delay is significant (a …

We investigate the welfare effect of increasing competition in an anonymous two-sided matching market, where matched pairs play an infinitely repeated Prisoner's Dilemma. Higher matching efficiency is usually considered detrimental as it creates stronger incentives for defection. We point out,...

Students participating in centralized admissions procedures do not typically have access to the information used to determine their matched school, such as other students' preferences or school priorities. This can lead to doubts about whether their matched schools were computed correctly (the...
