Human life history is unique in the animal kingdom as it combines elements of both fast and slow life histories. Notably, humans possess several traits distinct within the primate order, such as an extended childhood and menopause. Evolutionary explanations for these distinct human traits typically...

The value people attach to longevity increases is an important input to policy decisions on health care, the environment, and safety regulations. This value is typically estimated based on compensating differentials for taking on very small risks of death. We instead estimate this value by letting...

We evaluate secure survey methods designed for the ongoing monitoring of harassment in organizations. To do so, we partner with a large Bangladeshi garment manufacturer and experiment with different designs of phone-based worker surveys. “Hard” garbling (HG) responses to sensitive questions, i.e.,...

Over the past four decades, the earnings gap between college graduates and non-graduates has significantly widened, prompting interest in policies aimed at promoting higher education among low-income students to enhance their earning potential. A key challenge for the success of these policies is...

We propose a tractable model of asymmetric platform oligopoly in which users from two distinct groups are subject to within-group and cross-group network effects and decide which platform to join. We characterize the equilibrium when platforms manage user access by setting participation fees. We...

When both prices and wages are subject to nominal frictions, an increase in input prices such as energy can initiate a wage-price dynamics, as both nominal wages and prices adjust slowly. High inflation in prices and wages reduces welfare as it generates distributional effects and affects aggregate...
