Coalition Formation in Games with Externalities (2022)
Journal Article
Montero, M. (2022). Coalition Formation in Games with Externalities. Dynamic Games and Applications, https://doi.org/10.1007/s13235-022-00460-0

This paper studies an extensive form game of coalition formation with random proposers in games with externalities. It is shown that an agreement will be reached without delay if any set of coalitions profits from merging. Even under this strong cond...

Journal of Dairy Science, 105(9), 7462-7481. https://doi.org/10.3168/jds.2021-20885

Manure nitrogen (N) from cattle contributes to nitrous oxide and ammonia emissions and nitrate leaching. Measurement of manure N outputs on dairy farms is laborious, expensive, and impractical at large scales; therefore, models are needed to predict...

Lift and Shift: The Effect of Fundraising Interventions in Charity Space and Time (2022)
Journal Article
Scharf, K., Smith, S., & Ottoni-Wilhelm, M. (2022). Lift and Shift: The Effect of Fundraising Interventions in Charity Space and Time. American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, 14(3), 296-321. https://doi.org/10.1257/pol.20180679

Fundraising interventions may lift donations and/or shift their composition and timing. Using data rich in both the charity space and time dimensions, we find that major fundraising appeals lift donations to the appeal charity and that this increase...

Preferences and Perceptions in Provision and Maintenance Public Goods (2022)
Journal Article
Gächter, S., Kölle, F., & Quercia, S. (2022). Preferences and Perceptions in Provision and Maintenance Public Goods. Games and Economic Behavior, 135, 338-355. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.geb.2022.06.009

We study two generic versions of public goods problems: in Provision problems, the public good does not exist initially and needs to be provided; in Maintenance problems, the public good already exists and needs to be maintained. In four lab and onli... Read More about Preferences and Perceptions in Provision and Maintenance Public Goods.

The Impact of Covid-19 on Productivity (2022)
Preprint / Working Paper
Bloom, N., Bunn, P., Mizen, P., Smietanka, P., & Thwaites, G. The Impact of Covid-19 on Productivity

We analyse the impact of Covid-19 on productivity using data from an innovative monthly firm survey panel that asks for quantitative impacts of Covid on inputs and outputs. We find total factor productivity (TFP) fell by up to 5% during 2020-21. The... Read More about The Impact of Covid-19 on Productivity.

Malleability of Alcohol Consumption: Evidence from Migrants (2022)
Journal Article
