Nicht-Nachhaltiges Planen, Bauen und Betreiben – Aus guten Gründen (noch) die Praxis in der Bauwirtschaft?
Die Gründe warum Nachhaltigkeit (noch) nicht ein selbstverständlicher Bestandteil der Bauwirtschaft ist, sind vielfältig. Fehlendes Verständnis der nachhaltigen Entwicklung, unzureichende Rahmenbedingungen und eine geringe Nachfrage des Marktes sind in diesem Zusammenhang zu nennen. Zwei zentrale Barrieren für das nachhaltige Bauen sind zum einen der Mangel an akzeptierten...

Unemployment, social capital, and subjective well-being
It has been shown in past research that unemployment has a large negative impact on subjective well-being of individuals. In this paper, I explore whether and to what extent people with more social capital are sheltered from the harmful effects of unemployment. Using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel 1984–2004, I find that social capital is an important predictor of well-...

The relationship between risk attitudes and heuristics in search tasks: A laboratory experiment
Experimental studies of search behavior suggest that individuals stop searching earlier than the optimal, risk-neutral stopping rule predicts. Two different classes of
decision rules could generate this behavior: rules that are optimal conditional on utility functions departing from risk neutrality, or heuristics derived from limited cognitive processing capacities and...

Social environments with competitive pressure: Gender effects in the decisions of German schoolchildren
Systematic differences in decision making between genders have been discovered in both competitive and pro-social environments. These contexts, however, have been previously studied in isolation while in naturally occurring settings pro-social and competitive pressures often overlap in economically meaningful ways. Here we report data from an experiment involving German...

A common role of insula in feelings, empathy and uncertainty
Although accumulating evidence highlights a crucial role of the insular cortex in feelings, empathy and processing uncertainty in the context of decision making, neuroscientific models of affective learning and decision making have mostly focused on structures such as the amygdala and the striatum. Here, we propose a unifying model in which insula cortex supports different levels of...

Research Governance in Academia: are there Alternatives to Academic Rankings?
Peer reviews and rankings today are the backbone of research governance, but recently came under scrutiny. They take explicitly or implicitly agency theory as a theoretical basis. The emerging psychological economics opens a new perspective. As scholarly research is a mainly curiosity driven endeavor, we include intrinsic motivation andnsupportive feedback by the peers as important...

In the Eye of the Beholder: Subjective Inequality Measures and the Demand for Redistribution
This paper presents a simple conceptual framework intended for describing individuals'nsubjective evaluations of occupational wage inequality and their demand for redistribution. Most importantly, the framework explicitly allows for the distinction between individuals'nperceptions and their normative beliefs. I illustrate the framework using Swiss survey data from the...

Copula-based bivariate binary response models
The bivariate probit model is frequently used for estimating the effect of an endogenous binary regressor on a binary outcome variable. This paper discusses simple modifications that maintain the probit assumption for the marginal distributions while introducing non-normal dependence among the two variables using copulas. Simulation results and evidence from two applications, one on...

Zur Methodologie der technologischen Forschung in der Betriebswirtschaftslehre
In den letzten Jahren ist wieder der Ruf nach mehr Praxisrelevanz der Betriebswirtschafts- bzw. Managementlehre laut geworden. Unter relevanter Forschung wird dabei in der Regel eine Forschung verstanden, die letztlich zu instrumentellem Wissen führt, das in der Unternehmenspraxis einsetzbar ist. Eine solche, auf Entwicklung instrumentellen Wissens ausgerichtete Forschung wird auch...

Optimal Size and Intensity of Job Search Assistance Programs
This paper derives the welfare optimal size and intensity of job search assistance programs in a general equilibrium model where the labor market is affected by search frictions. Both instruments have a priori ambiguous fiscal implications: their direct employment stimulating effects broaden the base of the labor income tax and increase revenues, while also incurring direct costs. At...
