| Title | Essays on the Behavioral Economics of Inequality |
| Summary | This thesis consists of three chapters on different behavioral aspects of inequality. In the first, single-authored chapter, I run an online experiment to look at whether people compensate for inequalities in difficulty when rewarding performance. In the second chapter, co-authored with Marc Kaufmann, we use two online experiments to study whether people postpone more work to the future when they have excuses. In the third, single-authored chapter I look at how children from different socioeconomic backgrounds adjust their educational aspirations after having to repeat a grade at the end of primary school. |
