In this paper we explore the usefulness of a particular model of bounded rationality in the context of voting to show a crucial relationship between uncertainty about players' actions (in the information that voters receive or in how they make their decisions) and levels of turnout. The model...

This paper presents a model of consumer boycotts where the discrete choices of concerned consumers are represented as a stochastic processes. We solve for the limiting distribution of the process and analyze its properties. We then discuss how the model relates to game-theoretic models of...

We study how rework routing together with wage and piece rate compensation can strengthen incentives for quality. Traditionally, rework is assigned back to the agent who generates the defect (in a self routing scheme) or to another agent dedicated to rework (in a dedicated routing scheme). In...
