The paper presents the results of a Longitudinal Lab-in-the-Field Experiment implemented between September 2015 and July 2016 performed in two State Prisons California (USA) to measure change prosocial preferences. A subset eligible inmates willing undertake GRIP (Guiding Rage Into Power) program, were randomly assigned it. tests whether participation this program (used as treatment experiments) affects preferences participants, with specific reference trust. Difference-in-Differences (DID)...
In the past years, field of collaborative robots has been developing fast, with applications ranging from health care to search and rescue, construction, entertainment, sports, many others. However, current social robotics is still far general abilities we expect in a robot collaborator. This limitation more evident when are faced real-life contexts activities occurring over long periods. this article, argue that human–robot collaboration than just being able work side by on complementary...
We present experimental evidence on a high-dosage math tutoring (HDT) program implemented in three primary schools low-income neighborhood the Netherlands. find treatment effects scores of 0.28 national population standard deviations after one school year (p<0.01). These can account for 40% achievement gap between and high-income students As most intensive programs draws research from United States, we conclude that (i.) HDT be successfully built ground up exported to different institutional...
Food security and inclusive institutions are increasingly acknowledged as fundamental dimensions of development, given their role in promoting long-run economic growth stability. We explore the nexus between achievements democratisation food low- middle-income countries, through an analysis a panel 106 countries observed from 1990 to 2012. find that processes associated with improved security, former systematically precedes latter, shaping temporal dependence path. argue inclusiveness...
The investigation of emerging adults' expectations development the next generation robots is a fundamental challenge to narrow gap between and real technological advances, which can potentially impact effectiveness future interactions humans robots. Furthermore, literature highlights important role played by negative attitudes toward in setting people's expectations. To better explore these expectations, we administered Scale for Robotic Needs performed latent profile analysis describe...
This article investigates the attribution of mental state (AMS) to an anthropomorphic robot by humans in a strategic interaction. We conducted experiment which human subjects are paired with either or play iterated Prisoner's Dilemma game, and we tested whether AMS is dependent on "consistency," that is, correspondence between robot's verbal reaction its behavior after nonoptimal social outcome game obtained. find partners attributed higher level than robotic partners, regardless partner's...

Abstract This paper explores the intertwined relationship between democracy and state capacity, i.e. effectiveness of sovereignty over its territory population, in affecting probability civil wars’ onset. work aims at providing a fresh new look on this by exploiting recent release dataset institutional indicators (provided within V-Dem project), that allows to analyse effect capacity conflicts’ The analysis is performed through logit model, investigating 142 countries period 1950–2014. shows...
We present experimental evidence on a high-dosage tutoring (HDT) program implemented in three primary schools low-income neighborhood the Netherlands. document treatment effects of 0.28 national population standard deviations math achievement scores (p&lt;0.01) after one school year. These are sizable and can account for roughly 40% gap between high-income students As most intensive programs draws research from settings US, our findings show that (i.) HDT be successfully built ground up...
We present first results from an experimental evaluation of a high dosage math tutoring program implemented in secondary school for pre-vocational education located low-income neighborhood Amsterdam, the Netherlands. From pool 98 students their year (aged 12-13) 49 were randomly assigned to receive 2-on-1 tutoring. Treated received one class period personalized daily 16 weeks year. Outcome test scores observed at end semester and find treatment effects 0.44 (p&lt;0.01) 0.72 control group...
This paper aims to highlight Richard Stone’s contribution input-output analysis. The relevance, originality and effectiveness of Stone's the development analysis is closely tied international national positions he held during his fruitful professional life: internationally, by contributing United Nations programme for developing a standard system accounts; nationally, through being Director Department Applied Economics Programme Growth at University Cambridge. contributions - as well...
Cet article met en évidence la contribution remarquable et originale de Richard Stone à l’analyse input-output, étroitement liée sa carrière nationale internationale. Son apport principal est d’avoir contribué au développement d’une normalisation internationale des comptabilités nationales élaboré un modèle économétrique croissance fois réaliste général. Nous proposons une synthèse deux principales contributions théoriques empiriques aussi d’autres essais moins connus. Parmi les premiers, on...
Within the turmoil of Norman Conquest, did religious institutions affect economic outcomes their land? Exploiting historical data about changes in holdings’ lordship that occurred after we compare performance estates controlled by different types lords. Holdings Benedictine monasteries (vis-à-vis secular lords) experienced a better performance, although, once accounting for unchanging upper level feudal structure, cannot fully disentangle this effect from persistence Overlordship.

ABSTRACT Long‐term imprisonment often results in negative psychological and behavioural effects that hinder effective reintegration into society, exacerbating antisocial behaviour increasing recidivism rates. In response to a Supreme Court mandate, California, the state with second‐largest prison population United States, embarked on significant downsizing initiative. Designed help violent offenders develop emotional intelligence, mindfulness, understanding of victim impact, Guiding Rage...
An increasing number of scholars argue that income inequality is related to institutional and cultural factors, as well economic ones. I rely on Mancur Olson (1965)’s theories the effect group activities performance explore possible link between special- interest groups (SIGs) level in a country, including SIGs among long-run determinants inequality. Thus, assuming incomplete formation, paper investigates whether country with value expressed by Gini index. The analysis carried through panel...
Is competition in the mass media market an effective deterrent against capture? Does it prevent political groups from influencing reporting? This paper shows that some cases does not. Building on literature capture, model highlights that, under fairly generic assumptions, high can drive cost of capture to zero, making easier. Moreover, conditions parameters where effect is non-monotonic, i.e. may occur for levels lower, but also higher, than those leading freedom.
