Individual Heterogeneity, Group Interaction, and Co-operative Behaviour: Evidence from a Common-Pool Resource Experiment in South Africa and Namibia [PDF]

open access: yes
We present econometric evidence on the influence of an individual’s sociodemographic characteristics, economic background, and dynamic personal and group interactions on co-operative behaviour in a social dilemma situation.

Prevalence, duration, and clinical implications of continuous glucose monitor measurement limit capping in type 1 diabetes

open access: yesDiabetic Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims CGM devices report glucose only within fixed limits (typically 40–400 mg/dL; 2.2–22.2 mmol/L), truncating extreme values to a boundary (‘capping’). We characterised prevalence, duration, and consequences of capping in type 1 diabetes trial data.

Resolutions to flip-over credit risk and beyond [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Given a risk outcome y over a rating system {R_i }_(i=1)^k for a portfolio, we show in this paper that the maximum likelihood estimates with monotonic constraints, when y is binary (the Bernoulli likelihood) or takes values in the interval 0≤y≤1 (the ...

How important are within‐occupation task changes for wage growth? Evidence from administrative micro data

open access: yesEconomica, EarlyView.
We examine how changes in task content over time condition occupational wage development. Using survey data from Germany, we document substantial heterogeneity in within‐occupation changes in task content. Combining this evidence with administrative data on individual employment outcomes over a 25‐year period, we find important heterogeneity in wage ...

Monotonic Estimation for Probability Distribution and Multivariate Risk Scales by Constrained Minimum Generalized Cross-Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Minimum cross-entropy estimation is an extension to the maximum likelihood estimation for multinomial probabilities. Given a probability distribution {r_i }_(i=1)^k, we show in this paper that the monotonic estimates {p_i }_(i=1)^k for the probability ...

From Cohesion to Norms: How Animal Groups Come, Stay, and Function Together

open access: yesEthology, EarlyView.
The present review underscores two salient points: In the context of evolutionary transitions to pair‐ and group living, it is imperative to acknowledge the distinction between selective forces that act during the origin of these social systems and those that act during their subsequent maintenance.

The Legacy of Policy Inaction in Climate‐Growth Models

open access: yesInternational Economic Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To better understand the structure and core mechanisms of a broad class of climate‐growth models, we study a simplified version of the dynamic integrated model of climate and the economy (DICE) through the lens of growth theory. We analytically show that this model features a continuum of saddle‐point stable steady states.

Can genetic algorithms explain experimental anomalies? An application to common property resources [PDF]

open access: yes
It is common to find in experimental data persistent oscillations in the aggregate outcomes and high levels of heterogeneity in individual behavior. Furthermore, it is not unusual to find significant deviations from aggregate Nash equilibrium predictions.
