Peer Effects in Bin ary Outcomes: Strategic Complementarity and Taste for Conformity With Endogenous Networks

open access: yesJournal of Applied Econometrics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a generalized model of peer effects for binary outcomes, based on a network game that accounts for strategic complementarity (influence of the number of peers that select the same action) and conformity to social norms (penalizing deviations from the average peers' action).

A review of the development and implementation of the critical source area concept: A reflection of Andrew Sharpley's role in improving water quality

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Critical source areas (CSAs) are small areas of a field, farm, or catchment that account for most contaminant loss by having both a high contaminant availability and transport potential. Most work on CSAs has focused on phosphorus (P), largely through the work in the 1990s initiated by Dr.

On Partial Honesty Nash Implementation [PDF]

open access: yes
An agent is said to be partially honest if he or she weakly prefers an outcome at a strategy profile with his truthful strategy than an outcome at a strategy profile with his false strategy, then this player must prefer strictly the \true" strategy ...
