BACKGROUND
While vaping is considered to be safer than smoking tobacco and can help with successful smoking cessation, there is rising concern that it increases addiction among non-smokers, especially adolescents. Twitter presents a relevant, valuable, and feasible social media platform to study perspectives related to vaping.
OBJECTIVE
Our object...
Oligopolistic markets are known to be associated with a high degree of price and output rigidity. This is due to mutual interdependencies among firms in the market with regard to price and production. The primary objective of this research is to use a business simulation game to observe the convergence in pricing that is part and parcel of the game...
This paper revisits a literature on the links between unionisation and performance-related pay (PRP), which offers a disparate set of results. Part of the reason for this is the usual inability to distinguish between different types of PRP and the lack of rich panel data containing such measures. Analysis of panel data containing six separate PRP s...
Purpose

Utilizing a nationally representative longitudinal dataset of individuals, analysi...

Overall, women appear to receive a higher incidence of on-the-job training whereas men receive on-the-job training of longer duration. Including measures intended to capture the extent of labor force attachment and e...

While both earnings differences and payment methods have generated a vast amount of literature, the two subjects rarely interact. Moreover, these two subjects have only very rarely been tied to the product market. This chapter argues that the racial earnings difference should be smaller among those receiving output-based pay such as piece rates and...
This paper presents an information model in which workers receiving output-based pay experience less racial earnings discrimination than those receiving time rates and supervisory evaluations. Tests using the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth reveal no racial wage differential among male workers paid output-based pay while confirming a signific...
