Reference-Dependent Preferences: Evidence from Marathon Runners (2014, background): “Finally, DellaVigna et al. (2014) found bunching at unemployment insurance benefit cut points and argued that recent income serves as a reference point. Second, our paper broadens the class of potential non-status quo reference points. Much current work on reference dependence has taken either expec”
Consumer Spending during Unemployment: Positive and Normative Implications (2019, unknown): “To see why present-bias cannot explain the data by itself, we consider a corner case where the household has a degree of present-bias similar to that estimated in prior work (Laibson, Repetto, and Tobacman 2007; DellaVigna et al. 2017). For this case, we set β = 0.5 and leave the other parameters un”
Learning about job search: A field experiment with job seekers in Germany (2015, background): “As documented in DellaVigna and Paserman (2005), Paserman (2008), Dohmen et al. (2009), and Spinnewijn (2015), there is a tight theoretical and empirical link between the prevalence of behavioral biases—specifically present bias as well as biases in probability judgment and confidence—and longer une”

The best way to do so is to study the quality of post-UI job matches".”
