Measuring Substitution Patterns in the Attention Economy: An Experimental Approach

open access: yesThe RAND Journal of Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Substitution patterns are a crucial input to antitrust analysis, but measuring them for free digital products has proved difficult due to the lack of price variation. I measure substitution patterns by installing software on experimental participants' Android phones that restricts access to Instagram or YouTube—generating variation in choice ...

Quantifying functionally equivalent species and ecological network dissimilarity with optimal transport distances

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Quantifying the structure and dynamics of species interactions in ecological communities is fundamental to studying ecology and evolution. While there are numerous approaches to analysing ecological networks, there is not yet an approach that can (1) quantify dissimilarity in the global structure of ecological networks that range from ...

Co‐opted Boards and the Obfuscation of Financial Reports

open access: yesAbacus, EarlyView.
This study investigates the relationship between board co‐option and the obfuscation of financial disclosures in a comprehensive sample of 9,620 10‐K filings by 1,076 US‐listed firms between 1996 and 2018. Our empirical results are consistent with our hypotheses that board co‐option partly explains the obfuscation of financial reports.

Stabilizing adaptation in an invasive species: Alfalfa weevil as a case study

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.
Comparison of thermal thresholds, fecundity and longevity across three alfalfa weevil strains (California in the United States, Hamadan in Iran, Ebro Valley in Spain) reveal significant differences in demographic parameters. Weather‐driven physiologically based demographic models (PBDMs) developed from life table data explore strain adaptation to ...
