How many shots are enough? Optimizing precision measurements when testing lead‐free ammunition
Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Growing concern about lead exposure in scavenging wildlife and the consumers of game meat has increased interest in evaluating the performance of lead‐free rifle ammunition. Testing both accuracy and precision helps ensure reliable shot placement while reducing the risk of non‐fatal woundings.

Market Integration and Nonlinear Price Transmission in 19th‐Century British Wheat Markets
Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Important developments in infrastructure and institutions characterized 19th‐Century wheat markets in Great Britain. Among these developments was the construction of the national rail system which enabled cheaper and more efficient transport of grain and other bulky cargoes between inland towns and ports.

Beyond Sporting Talent: Other Determinants of Football Clubs’ Wage Bills
Bulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article delves into the understanding of how football clubs determine wage bills to compensate talent. Using data from first‐division teams in elite European leagues, we estimate wage models based on indicators of sporting performance, “Elo ratings” as a proxy for clubs’ historical achievements and brand strength, and “media visibility ...

The commercialization of labour markets: Evidence from wage inequality in the Middle Ages
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract This paper moves beyond the focus on ‘average’ wage trends in pre‐industrial economies by examining the broad diversity of pay rates and forms of remuneration across occupations and regions in medieval England. We find that whilst some workers enjoyed substantial growth in wage rates after the Black Death, there was a large group who ...

Characterization Theorems by Generalized Indiscernibles [PDF]
, 2010 We generalize the Unstable Formula Theorem characterization of stable theories in \cite{sh}: that a theory $T$ is stable just in case any infinite indiscernible sequence in a model of $T$ is an indiscernible set.

When in Doubt, Tax More Progressively? Uncertainty and Progressive Income Taxation
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the optimal income tax problem under parameter uncertainty about household preferences and wage dynamics. We derive conditions characterizing how such uncertainty affects optimal tax policy. To quantify the effect, we estimate a life‐cycle model using US data and a Bayesian approach.
