  • Awards a View from Psychological Economics
    Institute for Empirical Research in Economics University of Zurich Working Paper Series ISSN 1424-0459 Working Paper No. 357 Awards A view from psychological economics Bruno S. Frey and Susanne Neckermann January 2008 1 For: Journal of Psychology Deadline : 31 January 2007 AWARDS A VIEW FROM PSYCHOLOGICAL ECONOMICS by Bruno S. Frey1 and Susanne Neckermann2 Abstract Awards in the form of orders, decorations, prizes, and titles are ubiquitous in monarchies and republics, private organizations, not-for-profit, and profit-oriented firms. This paper argues that awards present a unique combination of different stimuli and that they are distinct and unlike other monetary and non-monetary rewards. Despite their relevance in all areas of life awards have not received much scientific attention. We propose to study awards and present results on a vignette experiment that quantifies and isolates the effects of different award characteristics such as the publicity associated with winning an award. Further, employing a unique data set, we demonstrate that there are substantial differences in the intensity of usage of awards across countries. Keywords: Awards, compensation, incentives, principal-agent, honors and distinctions JEL Classifications: C93, J33, M52 1 Bruno S. Frey is professor at the University of Zurich, Institute for Empirical Research in Economics and research director at CREMA - Center for Research in Economics, Management and the Arts, Gellertstrasse 18, CH-4052 Basel, Switzerland.

  • 'Medieval Film' on the Public Understanding of the Middle Ages
    Based on a True History?: The Impact of Popular ‘Medieval Film’ on the Public Understanding of the Middle Ages Paul B. Sturtevant Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds Institute for Medieval Studies and Centre for World Cinemas September, 2010 ii The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. The right of Paul B. Sturtevant to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. © 2010 The University of Leeds and Paul B. Sturtevant iii Acknowledgements An early draft of this thesis contained the line ‘Epic films do not spring, fully-fledged, from the skull of Mel Gibson’. While that line (and the glibness and amusing metaphor it contains) are gone, the sentiment is still there; no matter whose name is in bold on the poster, films are a collaborative art form with hundreds of people working to create the final product. A thesis is no different; just because my name is on the title page does not mean that I did not enjoy the collaborative efforts of a number of people, all of whom deserve acknowledgement and thanks. First and foremost, my supervisors. The interdisciplinarity of this project demanded expertise from a variety of fields, and as such I received helpful advice from a larger-than-usual number of people in different disciplines.

  • Cheap Speech Creation
    Cheap Speech Creation Alan K. Chen* As we look back on Professor Eugene Volokh’s predictive article about cheap speech, it is worth examining what other elements of the speech and media landscape, as well as the supporting legal infrastructure, have changed over that same period. This Essay focuses on the substantial reduction in the cost of speech creation, as opposed to distribution. After briefly discussing the accuracy of many of Volokh’s most important predictions, it examines innovative technological changes that have enabled a larger number and more diverse range of people to engage in speech creation because of the rapidly shrinking costs of doing so by employing user-friendly interfaces. It provides examples of speech of profound public concern that has resulted from such changes. The Essay then traces the corresponding evolution in First Amendment doctrine and legal scholarship that has expanded the concept of what types of speech creation are covered by the free speech clause. Finally, it addresses some negative externalities * Copyright © 2021 Alan K. Chen. Thompson G. Marsh Law Alumni Professor, University of Denver Sturm College of Law. Thank you to the UC Davis Law Review and Professor Ashutosh Bhagwat for putting together this symposium and to Eugene Volokh for providing us with the work that inspired it. I am also grateful to Ash and to Jane Bambauer, Greg Magarian, and Justin Marceau for their helpful comments on an earlier draft of this paper. Thanks also for excellent research assistance from Richard Barahona and Michelle Penn.
