We develop a dynamic macroeconomic framework with worker heterogeneity, monopsony power, and putty-clay adjustment frictions in order to study the distributional impact of labor market policies in the short and long run. Our model helps reconcile the tension between low short-run and high long-run...

Qualitative interviews are one of the fundamental tools of empirical social science research and give individuals the opportunity to explain how they understand and interpret the world, allowing researchers to capture detailed and nuanced insights into complex phenomena. However, qualitative...

Empirical regression discontinuity (RD) studies often use covariates to increase the precision of their estimates. In this paper, we propose a novel class of estimators that use such covariate information more efficiently than the linear adjustment estimators that are currently used widely in...

We demonstrate that fabricated videos of public officials synthesized by deep learning(“deepfakes”) are credible to a large portion of the American public – up to 50% of a representative sample of 5,750 subjects – however no more than equivalent misinformation in extant modalities like text...

This paper studies the role of local banking systems in the propagation of ECB Quantitative Easing (QE) programs. I firstly document that local deposit markets are fragmented across country lines, but the assets held by banks backing the deposits are in more integrated markets. I then consider a...

We use the tools of mechanism design, combined with the theory of risk measures, to analyze how a cash constrained owner of an asset with known stochastic returns raises capital from a population of investors that differ in their risk aversion and budget constraints. The issuer partitions the asset...

We propose a novel explanation for persistent movements in the natural rate of interest (r-star) based on two-sided learning between the central bank and the private sector. We analyze a New-Keynesian model where both learn about r-star from each other. When both sides fail to recognise that their...

This paper studies viewers' distaste for ads in a two sided-market. Using data from free-to-air TV permits us to observe the viewers' consideration set of alternatives and their characteristics. We first use market level data to estimate both viewers' demand for content and advertisers' demand for...

The ongoing expansion of interdisciplinary research has been coined a "golden age" in science, yet the replication crisis and difficulties in applying scientific insights have contributed to declining public trust in science. There has been a noticeable lack of focus on theory in advancing...
