(2010). My model allows for an analysis of the effects of firm learning on labor market efficiency in the presence of search … frictions. I find that firm learning increases relative expected earnings in high-ability jobs and, thereby, enhances imitation … priori. Numerical results show that firm learning does not increase labor market efficiency. …

We study compliance dynamics generated by a large set of behavioral rules describing social interaction in a population of agents facing an enforcement authority. When the authority adjusts the auditing probability every period, cycling in cheating-auditing occurs: Intensive monitoring induces...

This paper modifies a standard model of law enforcement to allow for learning by doing. We incorporate the process of … enforcement learning by assuming that the agency’s current marginal cost is a decreasing function of its past experience of … ability of future apprehension at a lower marginal cost. We focus on the impact of enforcement learning on optimal compliance …
