Workers who are more impatient search less intensively and set lower reservation wages.
The effect of impatience on exit rates from unemployment is therefore unclear. If agents have
exponential time preferences, the reservation wage effect dominates for sufficiently patient ...

This article estimates the degree of hyperbolic discounting in a job search model
quantitatively, using data on unemployment spells and accepted wages from the NLSY. The
results point to a substantial degree of hyperbolic discounting for low and medium wage ...

This paper demonstrates that women search longer for their first or second husband in cities
with higher male wage inequality, and examines several alternative explanations. A causal
link is established by controlling for city fixed effects and city-specific time trends, and by ...

Abstract In May 1991 fifteen thousand Ethiopian Jews were brought to Israel in an overnight
airlift and sorted in a haphazard and essentially random fashion to absorption centers
across the country. This quasi-random assignment produced a natural experiment ...
Abstract This paper studies the dynamics of violence in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict since
the outbreak of the Second (or “Al-Aqsa”) Intifada in September 2000, during which more
than 3,200 Palestinians and 1,000 Israelis have been killed. The violence has followed an ...

This paper uses the mass migration wave to Israel in the 1990s to examine the impact of
immigrant concentration in elementary school on the long-term academic outcomes of native

This article uses the mass migration wave to Israel in the 1990s to examine the impact of
immigrant concentration during elementary school on the long-term academic outcomes of

explore the underlying mechanisms through which these peer effects operate. We identify as

This paper examines the validity of overidentification tests and exogeneity tests in the
presence of grouped data. We find that even a small intra-group correlation, when
instruments do not vary within groups, may generate a substantial bias in the standard ...

How does impatience affect job search? More impatient workers search less intensively and
set a lower reservation wage. The effect on the exit rate from unemployment is unclear. In
this paper we show that, if agents have exponential time preferences, the reservation ...

This paper estimates the effect of the childhood environment on a large array of social and
economic outcomes lasting almost 60 years, for both the affected cohorts and for their
children. To do this, we exploit a natural experiment provided by the 1949 Magic Carpet ...

ABSTRACT In this paper we examine the dynamics of suicide attacks and targeted killings in
the Second Intifada. We find evidence that the targeted killings of Palestinian leaders by
Israel reduce realized Palestinian violence. We find, however, that intended Palestinian ...

Abstract: During the second part of the 1990s, the Israeli economy experienced a surge in
labour productivity and total factor productivity, which was driven primarily by the
manufacturing sector. This surge in productivity coincided with the full absorption and ...
