OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Estimating Preference Parameters from Strictly Concave Budget Restrictions (with Holger Gerhardt)
We propose a novel experimental method to elicit preference parameters: choices subject to strictly concave budget restrictions. We aim to improve upon the informational content of commonly used methods such as choices subject to linear budget restrictions in two ways: (i) by reducing the number of corner allocations and (ii) by enlarging the range of estimable parameter values. An online study on risk and time preferences confirms the benefits of our method. Corner allocations are drastically reduced, which facilitates estimation on the individual level, and a richer distribution of preference parameters compared to using linear budget restrictions is elicited.
