The Promise and Success of Lab-Field Generalizability in Experimental Economics: A Critical Reply to Levitt and List (2011, background): “Thanks to Dan Knoepfle, Stephanie Wang, Alec Smith, and especially Rahul Bhui for research assistance, to many patient listeners, to Tim Salmon and Abigail Barr for candid feedback, and to John List for his JPE [2006] data.”
