The recent paper by Salant and Spenkuch offers a blueprint for incorporating complexity at the level of individual objects into models of choice and for detecting satisficing outside of the laboratory.

New working paper alert: we provide a model of post-hoc rationalizations, driven by motives of (self-)esteem. We show how this can lead to groupthink, polarization, and a preference for echo chambers.

Are #smartphones and #socialmedia harming a generation?

This is a hotly debated and often polarizing debate. So we surveyed over 120 experts on the topic to see where there was genuine consensus (or not), like experts have previous done for climate change.

Search-and-matching models often assume a steady state. We prove that a non-stationary equilibrium exists, with search pool populations evolving. A key tool: we generalize Schauder’s fixed-point theorem to address discontinuous value functions econtheory.org/ojs/index.ph...

Why does India have one of the world's lowest rates of female employment,

Yet the Hindu diaspora in Malaysia, Mauritius, & the West all have high rates??

My hypothesis - in a handy flowchart
In India, people tend to depend on their jati, which can collectively gain status through female seclusion. This enables strict policing & arranged marriages.

But caste breaks down with migration, enabling female employment & love marriages.

People are willing to forgo 15-30% of their wage to avoid hostile work environments.

Women report a stronger distaste for exclusive workplaces and environments with sexual harassment and value hybrid work twice as much in the presence of sexual harassment.

Neden künyesiz ‘haber sayfalarını’ takip etmemelisiniz?

1) Editörü, sahibi belli değil. Rahatça yanlış şeyler paylaşabilirler, hesap verme kaygıları yok

2) 1-2 cümlelik haber, haber değildir. Bağlam vs. önemli

3) ‘Muhalif içeriklerle’ popüler olur ama kriz anlarında iktidar lehine paylaşım yapar
Bakın çöp arkadaşlar bunlar. Anlıyor musunuz? Bunlar X'i zehirledi. Bütün her şeyi mahveden hikayelerden birisi bu tarz hesaplar. RENDE sizce bilmiyor mu? Atatürk yazıp muhalifleri yönlendirmeyi. Bu değilse bir diğeri yarın operasyon için kullanılacak.

1/🧵 Following up on our study featured in NYT today, this figure provides a macro-level view:

Dem vote shares rise with turnout parity (left) but fall with party-level ideological moderation (right). This suggests mobilizing base voters > persuading swing voters by moving to the center.
