A media platform’s policy on obtrusive ads mediates an effectiveness-nuisance tradeoff. Allowing more obtrusive advertising can increase the effectiveness of ads, so the platform can elicit more short-term revenue from advertisers, but the nuisance to viewers can decrease their engagement over time, which decreases the platform’s opportunity for future revenue. To optimize long-term revenue, a ...
Research evaluation is praised as the symbol of modern quality management. We claim firstly, that output evaluations in academic research have higher costs than normally assumed, because the evaluated persons and institutions systematically change their behavior and develop counter strategies. Moreover, intrinsic work motivation is crowded out and undesired lock-in effects take place. Secondly,...

This study aims to address potential costs of using incorrect worked examples in teaching mathematics. While such practice has been shown to be effective in educational research, previous findings in the memory literature suggest that exposure to an incorrect solution may lead students to later believe that it is correct due to increased familiarity. We designed a two-session experiment with 1-...
This article evaluates the impact of private allegations of malpractice against cardiac surgeons on their patients’ outcomes and characteristics. While tort law may impact observable physician costs, malpractice allegations also impose hidden costs that could also affect physician behavior.

Surgical site infections (SSIs) adversely affect approximately 500,000 patients annually, causing immense human suffering and taking a huge financial toll on patients, hospitals, insurance companies, and the government. National organizations have made recommendations for reducing SSIs, and many advances have been made in evidence-based practice recommendations that result in fewer SSIs. Reusab...
Empirical research suggests that rather than improving incentives exerting control can reduce workers’ performance by eroding motivation. The present paper shows that intention-based reciprocity can cause such motivational crowding-out if individuals differ in their propensity for reciprocity and preferences are private information. Not being controlled might then be considered to be kind, beca...
Prologue: Canada’s provincial health insurance scheme is a source of endless fascination to policymakers advocating health system reform. Whether one is an advocate or a or a detractor of Canada’s plan us a model for the United States, an important issue that engages the antagonists is how much it costs to operate compared with America’s pluralistic and mostly private health insurance approach....

This study investigates the effect of withdrawal of FRIDs versus 'care as usual' on health-related quality of life (HRQoL), costs, and cost-utility in community-dwelling older fallers. METHODS In a prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial FRIDs assessme...
