We study extrinsic and intrinsic motivations for tax compliance in the context of a local church tax in Germany.

This note presents some tentative first evidence from a natural field experiment to shed light on how different types of potential donors: individuals, corporates and aristocratically titled individuals, respond to the same fundraising drive.

We study the persuasive impacts of non-informative communication on the short-run beliefs and long-run behavior of individuals.

This article identifies the part‐time wage effect, using hours variation caused by the social security rules.

A study explicitly addressing nonclassical measurement error.

Using data from the Health and Retirement Survey and the Assets and Health Dynamics of the Oldest Old survey, we estimate the stochastic process that determines both the distribution and dynamics of health care costs.

This paper estimates a life cycle model of labour supply, retirement, and savings behaviour in which future health status and wages are uncertain.

We infer the employment response to a minimum wage change by calibrating a model of employment for the restaurant industry.

Using store-level and aggregated Consumer Price Index data, we show that restaurant prices rise in response to minimum wage increases under several sources of identifying variation.

This paper extends a standard intertemporal labor supply model to account for progressive taxation as well as the joint determination of hourly wages and hours worked.

We find that the differences in life expectancy related to observable factors such as income, gender, and health have large effects on savings.

This paper constructs a rich model of saving for retired single people.
