Gendered Effects of the Minimum Wage

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Women work disproportionately in low‐hours jobs, which pay lower wages and are more exposed to minimum‐wage policies. We estimate an equilibrium search model with worker and firm heterogeneity, jobs differing in wages and hours, and imperfect compliance. Applied to Germany, the 8.50 € minimum wage reallocates women toward higher‐hours jobs and

Distributed Nash equilibrium seeking for second-order systems with finite/fixed-time convergence in the absence of velocity measurement

open access: yesScientific Reports
In this paper, the distributed Nash equilibrium seeking problem is addressed for the second-order systems without velocity measurement. The Nash equilibrium seeking methods with finite/fixed-time convergence are designed to obtain fast convergence speed ...

Incentive and Signaling Effects of Bonus Payments: An Experiment in a Company

open access: yesJournal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Economists and management scholars have argued that the scope of incentives to increase cooperation in organizations is limited as their use may signal the prevalence of free‐riding among employees. This paper tests this hypothesis with an artefactual field experiment that assigns managers and employees from a large company to stylized roles ...

Do soccer players play the mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium? [PDF]

open access: yes
Mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium (MSNE) is a commonly-used solution concept in game-theoretic models in various fields in economics, management, and other disciplines, but the experimental results whether the MSNE predicts well actual play in games is ...

Evidence Gathering Under Competitive and Noncompetitive Rewards

open access: yesJournal of Economics &Management Strategy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reward schemes may affect not only agents' effort but also their incentives to gather information in order to reduce the riskiness of the productive activity. In a laboratory experiment using a novel task, we find that the relationship between incentives and evidence gathering depends critically on the availability of information about peers ...
