The disjunction effect (DE) refers to an empirical violation of the Sure-Thing Principle (STP), which states that if a person is willing to take an action independently of the outcome of some event, then they must be willing to do so even when the outcome of the event is unknown. A standard...

Female labor force participation remains lower than male participation in many settings. Can this be explained by households’ preference for men’s work, and are these preferences malleable? We address this question with a field experiment in a refugee camp setting in Bangladesh, where we randomly...

How to go beyond the square distance d² in optimization algorithms and flows in metric spaces? Replacing it with a general cost function c(x,y) and using a majorize-minimize framework I will detail a generic class of algorithms encompassing Newton/mirror/natural/Riemannian gradient descent/Sinkhorn...

This paper studies identification and estimation of average causal effects, such as average marginal or treatment effects, in fixed effects logit models with short panels. Relating the identified set of these effects to an extremal moment problem, we first show how to obtain sharp bounds on such...

We study a model of credit markets with adverse selection where ex-ante identical lenders invest in a screening technology to reduce their type I and type II error in identifying good borrowers. A rich market structure emerges in equilibrium with continuous heterogeneity in lender screening and non...
