We find little evidence of assimilation over … those characteristics. We also document the nuanced impact of network connections on changes in Grade Point Average. …

This paper develops a simple model in which a social hierarchy emerges endogenously when agents form a network for …, as well as their value function, increases (strictly) concavely in the total activity of their neighbours in the network …. There exists a unique and stable positive activity equilibrium on exogenous networks under mild conditions. When we …

A large literature has studied how peers affect behavior by exploiting the preexisting social network structure only …. What if networks rewire in response to changes in the economic environment, such as a randomized intervention?

We study properties of collective action problems bounded by minimal contributions as well as endowment and variable contributions are neighbourhood dependent. We relate nearness to non-interior agents and its implication for interior contribution. Here, we see the aspects of node distance to...
