text: "This study examines the gender gap in competitiveness in an educational setting\r\nand
tests whether this gap depends on the difficulty of the task at hand. For this
purpose,\r\nwe administered a series of experiments during the final exam of a
university\r\ncourse. We confronted three cohorts of undergraduate students with
a set of bonus\r\nquestions and the choice between an absolute and a tournament
grading scheme\r\nfor these questions. To test the moderating impact of task difficulty,
we (randomly)\r\nvaried the difficulty of the questions between treatment groups.
We find that, on\r\naverage, women are significantly less likely to select the
tournament scheme. However,\r\nthe results show that the gender gap in tournament
entry is sizable when the\r\nquestions are relative easy, but much smaller and
statistical insignificant when the\r\nquestions are difficult."

text: We analyze the actual behavior of agents in a matching mechanism, using data
from a clearinghouse at the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics at
a German university, where a variant of the Boston mechanism is used. We supplement
this data with data generated in a survey among the students who participated
in the clearinghouse. We find that under the current mechanism over 74% of students
act strategically by misrepresenting at least one of their preferences. Nevertheless,
not all students are able to improve their outcome by doing so. We show that this
is mainly due to the incomplete information of students and naiveté. Sophisticated
students actually reach significantly better outcomes than naive students. Thus,
we find evidence that naive students are exploited by sophisticated students in
an incomplete information setting.

text: Much work on innovation strategy assumes or theorizes that competition
in innovation elicits duplication of research and that disclosure decreases such
duplication. We validate this empirically using the American Inventors Protection
Act (AIPA), three complementary identification strategies, and a new measure of
blocked future patent applications. We show that AIPA—intended to reduce duplication,
through default disclosure of patent applications 18 months after filing—reduced
duplication in the U.S. and European patent systems. The blocking measure provides
a clear and micro measure of technological competition that can be aggregated
to facilitate the empirical investigation of innovation, firm strategy, and the
positive and negative externalities of patenting. This paper
was accepted by Joshua Gans, business strategy.

text: Many countries have opened their health care markets to private for-profit
providers, aiming to promote quality and choice for patients. The prices are regulated
and providers compete in location and quality. We show that whereas opening a
public hospital market typically raises quality, the private provider strategically
locates towards the corner of the market to avoid costly quality competition.
Social welfare depends on the size of the regulator's budget and on the altruism
of the public provider. If the budget is large, high quality results and welfare
is highest in a duopoly whenever entry is optimal. If the budget is small, quality
levels in a duopoly mirror the quality level in a monopoly. It can be optimal
for the regulator not to use the full budget.

text: We investigate the degree of price competition among telecommunication firms.
Underlying a Bertrand model of price competition, we empirically model pricing
behaviour in an oligopoly. We analyse panel data of individual pricing information
of mobile phone contracts offered between 2011 and 2017. We provide empirical
evidence that price differences as well as reputational effects serve as a signal
to buyers and significantly affect market demand. Additionally, we find that brands
lead to an increase in demand and thus are able to generate spillover effects
even after price increase.

text: "Social psychology studies the \"common enemy effect\", the phenomenon\r\nthat
members of a group work together when they face an opponent, although they otherwise
have little in common. An interesting scenario\r\nis the formation of an information
network where group members individually sponsor costly links. Suppose that ceteris
paribus, an outsider\r\nappears who aims to disrupt the information \r\nflow within
the network\r\nby deleting some of the links. The question is how the group responds\r\nto
this common enemy. We address this question for the homogeneous\r\nconnections
model of strategic network formation, with two-way \r\nflow of\r\ninformation
and without information decay. For sufficiently low linkage\r\ncosts, the external
threat can lead to a more connected network, a positive\r\ncommon enemy effect.
For very high but not prohibitively high linkage\r\ncosts, the equilibrium network
can be minimally connected and efficient\r\nin the absence of the external threat
whereas it is always empty and ineffi\fcient in the presence of the external threat,
a negative common enemy\r\neffect. For intermediate linkage costs, both connected
networks and the\r\nempty network are Nash for certain cost ranges."
