This paper develops a new metric to measure revisions to subjective expectations and proposes a survey design strategy that enables the estimation of the metric. As an application, I analyze how women update their expectations about the e¤ectiveness of contraception methods. The women interviewed exhibit substantial heterogeneity in the way they revise their expectations with receipt of the sam...

University-affiliated multidisciplinary research centers have grown in importance in academia. Most research to-date has focused on these centers from an institutional perspective, with recent work only beginning to explore the ways in which such centers affect the development of academic careers. Hence, little is known about how scientists who are centeraffiliated differ from those who are not...

In this paper, a phase eld system of Penrose Fife type with non conserved order parameter is considered. A class of time discrete schemes for an initial boundary value problem for this phase eld system is presented. In three space dimensions, convergence is proved and an error estimate is derived. For one scheme, this error estimate is linear with respect to the time step size. 1 Introduction I...
