Performance and Turnover in a Stochastic Partnership
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper characterizes the social-welfare maximizing equilibrium of a “stochastic partnership matching market”, in which players paired to play a stochastic game may quit to be costlessly and anonymously re-matched. Patterns of performance and turnover in this equilibrium are consistent with the well-known “survivorship bias” and, if partners form “meaningful first impressions”, with the “honeymoon effect”. By contrast, maximizing social welfare in standard repeated games with re-matching typically requires that players receive low payoffs at the start of each relationship. Welfare and turnover comparative statics are also provided: higher partnership-states are associated with higher joint payoffs and, in the special case of an exogenous stochastic process, with both higher joint stage-game and joint continuation payoffs as well as longer-lasting relationships. ∗Fuqua School of Business and Economics Department, Duke University, Email: [email protected].
