Assessing the Employee Welfare Impact of Right‐To‐Work Laws: Insights From State‐Level Legislation
ABSTRACT We examine the effect of right‐to‐work (RTW) laws on employee welfare using the stacked difference‐in‐differences (DiD) methodology. We posit that RTW laws weaken collective bargaining power, increase free riding, and ultimately reduce employee welfare. We document a significant employee welfare decline following RTW adoption, especially among

ABSTRACT This paper reviews how large‐scale mobility data can enhance economic analyses, highlighting its contributions to understanding travel behavior, labor markets, social interactions, and health outcomes. We discuss its advantages over traditional mobility data sources, which include real‐time location information and fine spatial resolution ...

When Infrastructure Pushes Residents Out: High‐Speed Rail and Tourism Outflows
ABSTRACT This paper examines the impact of high‐speed rail (HSR) connectivity on both inbound and outbound tourism inflows. Leveraging the opening of a new HSR line connecting a northern Spanish region with mainland Spain, we employ a triple difference‐in‐differences design combined with inverse probability weighting (IPW) to evaluate the causal effect

ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Modifiable Areal Unit Problem on Network Topological Measures for Public Transit Flows
ABSTRACT Transit flows can provide useful insights into urban mobility patterns and dynamics. Generally, the transit flows between the origin and destination locations are aggregated into areal units for statistical analysis. A well‐known issue is the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP), where its sensitivity depends on the basic areal units.

Fuel Prices and Ambient Air Pollution: A Study of Sydney*
This paper explores the short‐run influence of road transport fuel prices on ambient air pollution over the period 2004–2023 for the case of Sydney, Australia. Using daily data from nine air quality monitoring stations, we find negative effects of fuel prices on ambient concentrations of several key pollutants including ozone, nitrogen dioxide and ...

SubeYa: A System for Predicting Passenger Demand at Train Stations
This study addresses the challenges of urban congestion and long wait times within EL1ML by introducing SubeYa, a web‐based platform designed to predict passenger demand. By utilizing the Prophet predictive model and analysing historical data from 2019 to 2025, the system achieves a global MAE of 259.10.
