Preferences for redistribution and international migration
Kauppinen, Ilpo; Poutvaara, Panu - 2020
Are migrants self-selected and sorted according to their views about what constitutes a fair level of redistribution? A major challenge in answering this question is that fairness concerns and self-interest are intertwined. We present a theoretical framework that allows us to test whether...

Preferences for redistribution and international migration
Kauppinen, Ilpo; Poutvaara, Panu - 2018
The Tiebout hypothesis suggests that people who migrate from more to less redistributive countries are more negative towards redistribution than non-migrants. However, differences between migrants' and non-migrants' redistributive preferences might also reflect self-interest. We present a model...

A note on salience of own preferences and the consensus effect
Dohmen, Thomas; Quercia, Simone; Willrodt, Jana - 2023
In this paper, we hypothesize that the strength of the consensus effect, i.e., the tendency for people to overweight the prevalence of their own values and preferences when forming beliefs about others' values and preferences, depends on the salience of own preferences. We manipulate salience by...
