Foster, Joshua - 2013

This paper presents a model of real effort provision in conjunction with social preference theory to predict how individuals exert effort to replace an exogenously determined "state of the world" with a preferred social outcome. Binary dictator games and real effort tasks are used to examine...

Attema, Arthur E. - 2013

The numerous reports on preference reversals in preference elicitations pose a great challenge to empirical economics. Many studies have found that different procedures may generate substantially different preferences. However, little is known about whether one procedure is more susceptible to...

Contraction Consistent Stochastic Choice Correspondence

Dasgupta, Indraneel - 2009

We model a general choice environment via probabilistic choice correspondences, with (possibly) incomplete domain and infinite universal set of alternatives. We offer a consistency restriction regarding choice when the feasible set contracts. This condition, 'contraction consistency', subsumes...

Using Stated Preferences Data to Analyze Preferences for Full and Partial Retirement

van Soest, Arthur - 2007

Structural models explaining retirement decisions of individuals or households in an inter-temporal setting are typically hard to estimate using data on actual retirement decisions, because choice sets are complicated and uncertain and for a large part unobserved by the researcher. This paper...
