The More Closely we are Watched, the Better we Behave

چکیده
Transparency is a complex issue, which can be approached from many angles and with various conceptual tools. This contribution provides a brief survey of the economic literature on transparency. The conceptual tool that economists use is the principal-agent model, a game-theoretic setting where a principal (the citizens, shareholders, etc) wants an agent (the government, the CEO, etc.) to perform a certain task. In this setting, transparency corresponds to the ability of the principal to observe what the agent does. We can then ask what happens when transparency improves.

P1: Negative Television and Memory
According to reports about 30-thousand people spent watching television had the impact on their memory and recall that the results showed no differences between men and women. The people who watched less than an hour a day did better at every memory function. As these contributors watched negative political ads, physiological responses indicated that their body was reflexively preparing to move...
متن کاملComparing minimally supervised home-based and closely supervised gym-based exercise programs in weight reduction and insulin resistance after bariatric surgery: A randomized clinical trial
Background: Effectiveness of various exercise protocols in weight reduction after bariatric surgery has not been sufficiently explored in the literature. Thus, in the present study, we aimed at comparing the effect of minimally supervised home-based and closely supervised gym-based exercise programs on weight reduction and insulin resistance after bariatric surgery. &n...
متن کاملامید ریاضی نرخ پوشش برای ماتریسهای هلمن
Hellman’s time-memory trade-off is a probabilistic method for inverting one-way functions, using pre-computed data. Hellman introduced this method in 1980 and obtained a lower bound for the success probability of his algorithm. After that, all further analyses of researchers are based on this lower bound. In this paper, we first studied the expected coverage rate (ECR) of the Hellman matrice...
متن کاملTracking Interval for Doubly Censored Data with Application of Plasma Droplet Spread Samples
Doubly censoring scheme, which includes left as well as right censored observations, is frequently observed in practical studies. In this paper we introduce a new interval say tracking interval for comparing the two rival models when the data are doubly censored. We obtain the asymptotic properties of maximum likelihood estimator under doubly censored data and drive a statistic for testing the ...
متن کاملA hybrid meta-heuristic algorithm based on ABC and Firefly algorithms
Abstract— In this paper we have tried to develop an altered version of the artificial bee colony algorithm which is inspired from and combined with the meta-heuristic algorithm of firefly. In this method, we have tried to change the main equation of searching within the original ABC algorithm. On this basis, a new combined equation was used for steps of employed bees and onlooker bees. For this...
