Does nature shape risk preferences? Evidence from Chile, Norway, and Tanzania

open access: yesEconomic Inquiry, Volume 63, Issue 2, Page 568-590, April 2025.
Abstract Does exposure to a more risky environment affect risk preferences? Going beyond single‐case study evidence, we report results from five surveys conducted in three countries and link this with administrative data to study whether a link between exposure and preferences is detectable and widespread. We find no evidence for endogenous preferences

Do Politically Connected Board Members Influence Firms' Debt Choices? Public Debt Versus Bank Debt

open access: yesEuropean Financial Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Using a unique hand‐collected data set on the political connections of board members of S&P 1500 companies, we find that board members with stronger government ties are positively associated with firms' preference for public debt over bank debt.

Pairwise Imitation and Tournament Graphs

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates strategic dynamics under the behavioral rule of pairwise interact and imitate (PII), which requires minimal information and emphasizes outperforming opponents in pairwise interactions. We characterize PII using weak tournament graphs and, for a broad class of dynamics, establish a one‐shot stability result for ...

L3 Regressive Transfer: A Study of Null Objects in the Basque and Spanish Grammars of Advanced L3 English Speakers

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regressive transfer has been a subject that has not been extensively researched in the field of third language acquisition. This study aims to examine the extent to which a highly advanced knowledge of a third language (L3) affects the first language (L1) and the second language (L2) of early bilinguals in light of the Differential Stability ...

The geometry of pMHC‐coated nanoparticles and T‐cell receptor clusters governs the sensitivity‐specificity trade‐off in T‐cell response: a modeling investigation

open access: yesImmunology &Cell Biology, EarlyView.
Using numerical Monte Carlo simulations of nanoparticle‐T‐cell receptors binding, we show that the spatial organization of surface receptors is important for affinity‐based discrimination of peptide‐major histocompatibility complex ligands. Interaction geometry modulates the sensitivity of the T‐cell response to both ligand concentration and binding ...
