A Model of Scientific Communication [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrica, 2021
We propose a positive model of empirical science in which an analyst makes a report to an audience after observing some data. Agents in the audience may differ in their beliefs or objectives, and may therefore update or act differently following a given report.
