The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) shifts the complementary market for pas- senger transport from oil to electricity. We develop and estimate a joint equilibrium model of the German electricity and automobile markets, emphasizing the timing of EV charging, as electricity generation costs and...

In a parametric conditional moment model with time-varying parameters, we develop a new integrated conditional moment (ICM) estimator which uses all information from conditional restrictions seamlessly. Our approach builds on the ICM principle originally proposed by Bierens (1982) and combines it...

We examine an analyst who uses a latent representation, reflecting either complexity constraints or prior information, or organize her estimating of a data generating process and subsequent updating and prediction. We draw connections between this setting and problems of misspecified learning and...

Governments have reformed public services by adopting private sector governance models that grant top directors greater autonomy, responsibility for meeting key targets, and performance-based rewards. We examine a central plank of this approach–that directors can impact the organizations they run–...

What is the structure and function of moral cognition? According to leading theories, moral judgments arise from a collection of disparate mechanisms (e.g., reciprocity, norm-enforcement, pathogen-avoidance). My research, by contrast, suggests that moral cognition is more unified: most of moral...

Blackwell’s approachability is a general online learning framework where a Decision Maker obtains vector-valued outcomes, and aims at the convergence of the average outcome to a given “target” set. Blackwell gave a sufficient condition for the decision maker having a strategy guaranteeing such a...

Spending induced by health insurance is often called moral hazard and definitionally assumed to be inefficient. We adapt standard models and show that for those living ``hand-to-mouth", the financing benefits of insurance cause a portion of moral hazard to be efficient. Although insurance's price...

Competition laws are influenced by economic presumptions regarding how markets operate. Such presumptions generally relate to how humans interact, such as how human decision-makers – whether acting as individuals or as agents of a firm – gather information, send signals, and deal with complex,...

Economists disagree about the factors driving the substantial increase in residual wage inequality in the US over the past few decades. To identify changes in the returns to unobserved skills, we make a novel assumption about the lifecycle dynamics of skills, which we validate using data on test...

This paper offers a framework for studying digital ecosystems and data regulation. In our model, a multi-product ecosystem competes with small single-product firms in both price and innovation. Data regulation either restricts data usage across business units within the ecosystem or requires the...
