چکیده

We develop a de nition of equilibrium for agenda formation in general voting settings. The de nition is independent of any protocol. We show that the set of equilibrium outcomes for any Pareto eÆcient voting rule is uniquely determined, and in fact coincides with that of the outcomes generated by considering all full agendas. Under voting by successive elimination (or amendment), the set of equilibrium outcomes corresponds with the Banks set. We also examine the implications in several speci c settings and show that studying equilibrium agendas can lead to sharp predictions, in contrast with well-known \chaos" theorems.

Nber Working Paper Series Experimenting with Measurement Error: Techniques with Applications to the Caltech Cohort Study

Measurement error is ubiquitous in experimental work. It leads to imperfect statistical controls, attenuated estimated effects of elicited behaviors, and biased correlations between characteristics. We develop simple statistical techniques for dealing with experimental measurement error. These techniques are applied to data from the Caltech Cohort Study, which conducts repeated incentivized sur...
