Ballot Position, Choice Fatigue, and Voter Behaviour (2016, background): “results on propositions as an increased tendency to vote for the status quo when fatigued, this effect might simply reflect an increased tendency for fatigued voters to vote no, regardless of meaning (as suggested by Kamenica (2012)).”
Over)insuring Modest Risks (2010, methodology): “16 information about the appropriate choice from the available menu, as in the model by Kamenica (2008).”
Choice proliferation, simplicity seeking, and asset allocation ☆ (2010, background): “Theoretical investigations show that these instances of choice overload can arisewhen the available choice set conveys useful information (Kamenica, 2008) orwhen agents exhibit preferences with regret (Irons and Hepburn, 2007; Sarver, 2008).”
Revealed (P)Reference Theory (2015, background): “In particular, Kamenica (2008) studies a model in which there is a market with rational consumers some of whom are informed and some of whom are uninformed, with uninformed consumers exhibiting a behavior in equilibrium that conforms with the attraction effect phenomenon.”
A Tough Act to Follow: Contrast Effects in Financial Markets (2018, unknown): “…to a large theory literature on contextdependent choice and reference points (e.g., Kahneman and Tversky, 1979; Koszegi and Rabin, 2006, 2007; Kamenica, 2008; Cunningham, 2013; Bordalo et al., 2015; and Bushong et al., 2015).1 Finally, our findings are related to research in behavioral…”
Optimal Taxation with Behavioral Agents (2020, unknown): “We derive a behavioral version of the three pillars of optimal taxation: Ramsey (1927) (linear commodity taxation to raise revenues and redistribute), Pigou (1920) (linear commodity taxation to correct for externalities), and Mirrlees (1971) (nonlinear income taxation).”
Random Choice and Learning (2019, background): “For example, Kamenica (2008) shows that it is optimal for a consumer to exhibit context-dependent choice behavior if an agent who has private information about the values of the options (e.g., a monopolist firm) has designed the menu of options available in the choice problem.”
