OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Brevity
This project studies incentives for private learning in a game of strategic information transmission. We show that information that is sufficiently costly to acquire can only be transmitted coarsely. We provide comparatives statics results showing that a more nuanced categorization provides weaker incentives for information acquisition than a coarser one. Finally, we consider two welfare-improving extensions: information design and delegation.
