Fractional Brownian Motion to Generate Multistage Scenario Trees

Unexpected Fiscal Policies

In this paper, we introduce a method to quantify the deviation of local policymaking from expected norms based on local characteristics. We begin by computing the cosine similarity of municipal public budgets between pairs of municipalities to generate a measure of similarity in policymaking. This measure strongly correlates with differences in local characteristics, such as geographical distance, size and demographic composition, and the political traits of local officials. Next, we use a fi...

Property Rights on Unused Assets and Investment Incentives: Evidence from Brazil

It is usually stated that property rights security on assets positively affects investment incentives since it guarantees the ability to get the future benefits from investment. Yet, the empirical evidence on this relationship is ambiguous. From a theoretical point of view, this is not surprising since property rights security on asset may even entail a negative effect on investment incentives as long as property right are endogenous to investment (Besley, 1995) or investors are characterized...

News, emotions, and policy views on immigration

How do emotions affect policy views on immigration? How do they influence the way people process and respond to factual information? We address these questions using a survey experiment in Italy, which randomly exposes around 7,000 participants to (i) sensational news about immigrant crimes, (ii) statistical information about immigration, or to (iii) the combination of both. First, we find different effects of news depending on the severity of the reported crime: while the news of a rape aga...

Gender stereotypes and children’s performance in primary schools

This paper investigates the impact of exposure to teacher stereotypes on student achievement in primary schools. We measure both implicit and explicit stereotypes using item-based questions available in the European Value Survey and the Gender-Science Implicit Association Test, respectively. By exploiting the random assignment of students to teachers with different levels of stereotypes, we show that the gender gap in math performance, defined as the difference between boys' and girls' score...
