Married women with children experience greater intrasexual competition than their male counterparts
Scientific Reports, 2023 Human males are considered to be more competitive than females. However, females must also compete for resources necessary for their own and their offsprings’ survival. Since females use more indirect forms of competition than males, comparing observable

The Management of Natural Resources Under Asymmetry of Information [PDF]
Annual Review of Resource Economics, 2015 We provide an introductory review to the application of the theory of incentives under asymmetry of information to the exploitation and management of natural resources. We concentrate mostly on principal-agent problems with adverse selection as posed by the regulation of nonrenewable resources, stressing the fact that the inherently dynamic nature of ...

Some Effects of Asymmetries in a Common Pool Natural Resource Oligopoly [PDF]
Strategic Behavior and the Environment, 2014 We consider a renewable resource being exploited in common by firms that compete both in the output market and in the exploitation of the resource. We show that the introduction of the slightest cost differentiation among the firms can have a drastic effect on the nature of the equilibria that may be expected as compared to the identical cost case.
