We compare competing college admission matching mechanisms that differ in preference submission timing (pre-exam, post …-exam but pre-score, or post-score) and in matching procedure (Boston (BOS) and serial dictatorship (SD) matching). Pre … or SD matching are ex-post fair and efficient, they are not so ex-ante. Instead, the mechanism with pre-exam submission …

A large class of two-sided matching models that include both transferable and non-transferable utility result in … positive assortative matching along a latent index. Data from matching markets, however, may not exhibit perfect assortativity … estimation using dependent data from a single large matching market. The nature of the dependence requires modification of …

This paper proposes a new and easy-to-estimate marriage matching function (MMF). Unlike existing MMFs, the equilibrium … marriage matching distribution associated with the proposed MMF is not necessarily unique. I show its existence under minimal … peer effects and the dynamic frictionless TU marriage matching model both generate MMFs that are each a special case of …
