Consider an extensive-form mechanism, run by an auctioneer who communicates sequentially and privately with agents. Suppose the auctioneer can make any deviation that no single agent can detect. We study the mechanisms such that it is incentive-compatible for the auctioneer not to deviate - the credible mechanisms.

One of the main problems in pension policy is to develop an institutional framework that guarantees that public and private pensions promises are kept. This paper discusses how the governance of public and private pensions is key to making such promises credible.

Recent politics has been characterized by politicians’ harsh anti-immigration appeals and backlash against immigrants. I present a novel explanation for this backlash that hinges on politicians’ ability to make such appeals credible. The starting point is a cheap talk model in which a politician (sender) is aligned with one of two opposed groups ...

The effect of information from observed data on prescribed confidence coefficients is examined in terms of positive events and credibility. Using the classical approach, a search procedure of Eichhorn in medical research is shown to be feasible but not credibly feasible.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) relies upon adverse event data collected during pharmaceutical trials to evaluate the safety of medications, but these trials often fail to permit an adequate assessment of safety. The FDA usually recommends that at least 1500 patients be exposed to a new drug.

To be or not to be… credible that is: a model of reputation and credibility among competing firms
Corporate Communications: An International Journal, 1995Previous studies of corporate reputation have either confirmed its existence as an influence agent or described in general terms its effects on other attributes (quality, price, advertising, etc.). The competitive credibility model of reputation building is formulated and tested through simulation. Reports and discusses results.

Credibility in Information Retrieval
Foundations and Trends® in Information Retrieval, 2015Credibility, as the general concept covering trustworthiness and expertise, but also quality and reliability, is strongly debated in philosophy, psychology, and sociology, and its adoption in computer science is therefore fraught with difficulties. Yet its importance has grown in the information access community because of two complementing factors: on

This paper presents models in which one agent must decide whether to trust another, whose motives are uncertain. Reliability can only be communicated through actions. In this context, it pays for people to build a reputation based on reliable behaviour, someone becomes credible by consistently providing accurate and valuable information or by ...

EVOLUTIONARY HIERARCHICAL CREDIBILITY
ASTIN Bulletin, 2016AbstractThe hierarchical credibility model was introduced, and extended, in the 70s and early 80s. It deals with the estimation of parameters that characterize the nodes of a tree structure. That model is limited, however, by the fact that its parameters are assumed fixed over time.
