We investigate how and why the productivity of a worker varies as a function of the
productivity of her co-workers in a group production process. In theory, the introduction of a
high productivity worker could lower the effort of incumbent workers because of free riding; ...

We use a simple theoretical framework and a randomized manipulation of access to
information on peers' wages to provide new evidence on the effects of relative pay on
individual job satisfaction and job search intentions. A randomly chosen subset of ...

We estimate the effect of new unionization on firms' equity value over the 1961-1999 period
using a newly assembled sample of National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) representation

We survey the evidence on whether racial atti tudes negatively affected Barack Obama's
vote share in the 2008 presidential election. There is some evidence pointing toward this
possibility. First, the increase in the Democratic vote share in the presidential election ...

A great deal of urban policy depends on the possibility of creating stable, economically and
racially mixed neighborhoods. Many social interaction models–including the seminal
Schelling (1971) model--have the feature that the only stable equilibria are fully ...

Abstract This study examines the effects on occupational injury claims of a recently
implemented post-accident drug testing (PADT) program in a large retail chain. We find that
claims have fallen significantly in affected districts, suggesting that PADT programs can ...

This paper offers evidence that welfare time limits contributed to a deterioration of infant
health. We use the fact that the dates at which TANF recipients were first subject to timing out
varied by state. We show that by 2000 there was a marked difference in TANF duration ...

Abstract: Aggregate norms or institutions depend on individual behavior at a particular time,
and on norms in prior periods. Individual actions depend on contemporaneous aggregated
