performance. Measured performance equals actual performance plus noise. We compare a stable environment where the noise is small … with a volatile environment where the noise is large. Subjects exert significantly more effort in the volatile environment …

methods to disentangle the offsetting noise and accessibility effects of one technology of mass transit, metro rail, analyzing … land prices (house prices) by 21% (5%), while a 10 db increase in noise depreciates land prices (house prices) by 5% (1 …%). We show that these effects are underestimated by 40% (access) to 80% (noise) if they are not estimated conditional on …

We investigate strategic information transmission with communication error, or noise. Our main finding is that adding … noise can improve welfare. With quadratic preferences and a uniform type distribution, welfare can be raised for almost … every bias level by introducing a sufficiently small amount of noise. Furthermore, there exists a level of noise that makes …

prices related (news) and not related (noise) to future fundamentals. I provide empirical evidence of the sizable … macroeconomic effects of news and noise shocks. Following Forni et al. (2014, 2016), I identify news and noise shocks through a non … frequencies, but in the short-medium horizon noise shocks explain a large share of the variability in housing prices, residential …

Noise pollution is detrimental to health and to cognitive development of children. This is not only true for extreme … levels of noise in the neighborhood of an airport but also to traffic noise in urban areas. Using a census of preschool … children, we show that children who are exposed to intensive traffic noise significantly fall behind in terms of school …

Using a census of preschool … children, we show that children who are exposed to intensive traffic noise significantly fall behind in terms of school …

are also robust to more realistic assumptions such as noise. In this paper, in the context of voluntary contribution games … under noise and what happens when other assumptions such as population homogeneity are relaxed. Second, we investigate the … welfare properties of the mechanism, interpreting noise as a policy instrument, and we use logit dynamic simulations to …
