We collected this data in an incentivized field study that we conducted at a large German university over three years (2016–2019). Most important for the experiment at hand, the field study included an incentivized one-shot ... -
The Economic Consequences of Algorithmic Discrimination: Theory and Empirical Evidence
(2020-12-09)Using a novel theoretical framework and data from a comprehensive field study we conducted over a period of three years, we outline the causal effects of algorithmic discrimination on economic efficiency and social welfare ... -
