SUMMARY:Economic theory seminar - David Lagziel
DTSTART:20210318T100000Z
DTEND:20210318T110000Z
DESCRIPTION:The talk will consist of three parts\, each based on a differen
 t research paper\, all concern a decision maker who uses noisy unbiased ass
 essments to screen elements from a general set: the first part\, based on "
 A Bias of Screening" (AER: Insights\, 2019)\, shows that stricter screening
  not only reduces the number of accepted elements\, but possibly reduces th
 eir average expected value. The second part\, based on ''Screening Dominanc
 e: A Comparison of Noisy Signals" (forthcoming AEJ: Microeconomics) shows t
 hat one can actually generate `lucky coins' as additional binary noise can 
 strictly improve a screening process. We also provide a comparison of diffe
 rent noisy signals under threshold (screening) strategies and optimal ones\
 , and depict several partial characterizations of cases in which one noise 
 is preferable over another. The third and last part\, based on a working pa
 per entitled ''Sequential Screening"\, would try to answer the question of 
 why we use sequential screening. In addition\, we would  show that one-sta
 ge screening is possibly preferable to multi-stage screening.\\n\\nContact:
