Earning While Learning: How to Run Batched Bandit Experiments
Stata Journal, 26(3), 1-33.
Researchers typically collect experimental data sequentially, allowing early outcome observations and adaptive treatment assignment to reduce exposure to inferior treatments. This article reviews multi-armed-bandit adaptive experimental designs that balance exploration and exploitation. Because adaptively collected experimental data through bandit algorithms violate standard asymptotics, inference is challenging. We implement an estimator that yields valid heteroskedasticity-robust confidence intervals in batched bandit designs and compare coverage in Monte Carlo simulations. We introduce bbandits for Stata, a tool for designing experiments via simulation, running interactive bandit experiments, and implementing and analyzing adaptively collected data. bbandits includes three common assignment algorithms—ε-first, ε-greedy, and Thompson sampling—and supports estimation, inference, and visualization.

Zugang, Auslastung und Öffnungszeiten von Kitas:
Führt bessere Betreuung zu mehr Beschäftigung von Frauen?
Perspektiven der Wirtschaftspolitik, 26(4), 425-440.
Fehlende Kinderbetreuung gilt als Ursache für Unterschiede in der Beschäftigung von Männern und Frauen. Wir verwenden Daten aus dem Infrastrukturatlas sowie der Raum- und Stadtentwicklungsindikatoren, um die Rolle von Erreichbarkeit, Öffnungszeiten und Nutzung von Kindertagesstätten (Kitas) in Deutschland für die Beschäftigung zu untersuchen. Die Daten umfassen Fahrzeiten von 22,5 Millionen Wohnadressen zu verschiedenen öffentlichen Infrastrukturen, darunter 55.000 Kitas. Wir zeigen, dass Regionen mit besserer Erreichbarkeit, höherer Auslastung und längeren Kitaöffnungszeiten geringere Beschäftigungsunterschiede zwischen Frauen und Männern aufweisen. Die Ergebnisse sind nicht kausal zu interpretieren, die Öffnungszeiten nehmen jedoch eine besonders relevante Rolle ein, die auch nach Berücksichtigung regionaler Charakteristika bestehen bleibt. Eine Überschlagsrechnung legt nahe, dass eine Verbesserung der Kitainfrastruktur die Beschäftigungslücke deutlich verringern und bis zu 950.000 zusätzliche Frauen in sozialversicherungspflichtige Beschäftigung bringen könnte.

Invitation Messages for Business Surveys: A Multi-Armed Bandit Experiment
Survey Research Methods, 19(4), 409-429.
Best Interdisciplinary Paper Award
This study investigates how elements of a survey invitation message targeted to businesses influence their participation in a self-administered web survey. We implement a full factorial experiment varying five key components of the email invitation. Unlike traditional experimental setups with static group composition, however, we employ adaptive randomization in our sequential research design. Specifically, as the experiment progresses, a Bayesian learning algorithm assigns more observations to invitation messages with higher starting rates. Our results indicate that personalizing the message, emphasizing the authority of the sender, and pleading for help increase survey starting rates, while stressing strict privacy policies and changing the location of the survey URL have no response-enhancing effect. The implementation of adaptive randomization is useful for other applications of survey design and methodology.

Cut Off from New Competition: Threat of Entry and Quality of Primary Care
Labour Economics, 92, 102669.
We study how the threat of entry affects service quantity and quality of general practitioners (GPs). We leverage Germany's needs-based primary care planning system, in which the likelihood of new GPs reduces by 20 percentage points when primary care coverage exceeds a cut-off.
We compile novel data covering all German primary care regions and up to 30,000 GP-level observations from 2014 to 2019. Reduced threat of entry lowers patient satisfaction for incumbent GPs without nearby competitors but not in areas with competitors. We find no effects on working hours or quality measures at the regional level including hospitalizations and mortality.

Accounting for Transparency
Schmalenbach Journal of Business Research, 76, 573–611.
This article presents how the Collaborative Research Center TRR 266 Accounting for Transparency understands and studies transparency in organizations and markets. Starting from our transparency definition, which is rooted in a sender/receiver framework, we discuss how accounting, taxation, and their regulation affect transparency and illustrate selected economic consequences of transparency.
We use three analyses to exemplify our research approach.
Overall, we argue that transparency is highly context-specific, non-trivial to achieve, and often has ambiguous consequences. We conclude by highlighting selected transparency-related questions that interdisciplinary work with a particular emphasis on institutional details can meaningfully address. -

The German Business Panel: Firm-Level Data for Accounting and Taxation Research
European Accounting Review, 34(4), 1499–1527.
The German Business Panel (GBP) periodically surveys key decision-makers via a large sample of companies in Germany. The survey questions investigate managers' accounting and taxation choices as well as the expected and perceived outcomes of those decisions. To obtain causal evidence, the survey supports the use of randomized survey experiments.
The evidence from the GBP can meaningfully advance our understanding of issues that require data on internal processes as well as expectations, perceptions, and objectives behind ex-post reported accounting figures. The target population comprises the universe of legal entities included in the official German Statistical Business Register. We show that the dominance of small and medium-sized entities is a feature that Germany shares with many European countries, implying that GBP findings will be reasonably generalizable to European settings. We illustrate the usefulness of GBP data by presenting evidence from the initial waves of the GBP during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings show how government aid programs contributed unevenly to the solvency of the most negatively affected companies, and how companies, rather than consumers, benefited from a temporary reduction of VAT rates. The paper also demonstrates how the scientific community can use the GBP data. -

Occupational Regulation, Institutions, and Migrants’ Labor Market Outcomes.
Labour Economics, 79, 102250.
We study how licensing, certification and unionisation affect the wages of natives and migrants and their representation among licensed, certified, and unionized workers. We provide evidence of a dual role of labor market institutions, which both screen workers based on unobservable characteristics and also provide them with wage setting power. Labor market institutions confer significant wage premia to native workers (4, 1.6, and 2.7 log points for licensing, certification, and unionization respectively), due to screening and wage setting power. Wage premia are significantly larger for licensed and certified migrants (10.3 and 6.6 log points), reflecting a more intense screening of migrant than native workers. The representation of migrants among licensed (but not certified or unionized) workers is 15% lower than that of natives. This again implies a more intense screening of migrants by licensing institutions than by certification and unionization.

Optimal Taxation when the Tax Burden Matters.
Public Finance Analysis, 78, pp. 312-340.
Survey evidence shows that the magnitude of the tax liability plays a role in value judgements about which groups deserve tax breaks. We demonstrate that the German tax-transfer system conflicts with a welfarist inequality averse social planner. It is consistent with a planner who is averse to both inequality and high tax liabilities. The tax-transfer schedule reflects non-welfarist value judgements of citizens or non-welfarist aims of policy makers. We extend our analysis to several European countries and the USA to show that their redistributive systems can be rationalized with an inequality averse social planner for whom the tax burden matters.

Flexible Work Arrangements and Precautionary Behavior: Theory and Experimental Evidence.
Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, 191, 442-481.
In the past years, work-time in many industries has become more flexible, opening up a new channel for intertemporal substitution: workers might, instead of saving, adjust their work-time to smooth consumption. To study this channel, we set up a two-period consumption/saving model with wage uncertainty. This extends the standard saving model by also allowing a worker to allocate a fixed time budget between two work-shifts. To test the comparative statics implied by these two different channels, we conduct laboratory experiments. A novel feature of our experiments is that we tie income to a real-effort style task. In four treatments, we turn on and off the two channels for consumption smoothing: saving and time allocation. Our main finding is that savings are strictly positive for at least 85 percent of subjects. We find that a majority of subjects also uses time allocation to smooth consumption and use saving and time shifting as substitutes, though not perfect substitutes. Part of the observed heterogeneity of precautionary behavior can be explained by risk preferences and motivations different from expected utility maximization.

Can Taxes Raise Output and Reduce Inequality? The Case of Lobbying.
Scottish Journal of Political Economy, 67, pp. 455-461.
One of the key institutional elements for reducing inequality is the tax and transfer system. However, economists and policy makers usually view high taxes as detrimental to economic growth. We isolate one important mechanism by which higher taxes reduce inequality and raise per capita GDP at the same time. This mechanism operates in the presence of unproductive lobbying. Higher taxes induce a reallocation from lobbying toward production. This raises overall output and reduces the consumption gap between those who benefit from lobbying and those who bear its negative effects. -

The Effects of Taxation on Entrepreneurial Investment: A Puzzle?
International Tax and Public Finance, 27, pp. 1321-1363.
We investigate how personal income taxes affect the portfolio share of personal wealth that entrepreneurs invest in their own business. In a portfolio choice model that allows for tax sheltering, we show that lower tax rates may increase investment in entrepreneurial equity at the intensive margin, but decrease it at the extensive margin. Using German panel data, we identify tax effects on the portfolio shares of six asset classes by exploiting tax and entry regulation reforms. Our results indicate that lower taxes drive out businesses that are viable only due to tax sheltering, but increase investment in productive entrepreneurial businesses.

Does Regulation Trade-Off Quality against Inequality?
British Journal of Industrial Relations, 57(4), pp. 870–893.
We exploit an exogenous price increase by about 10% for architectural services to answer the question how price regulation affects income inequality and service quality. Using individual-level data from the German microcensus for the years 2006 to 2012, we find a significant reform effect of 8% on personal net income for self-employed architects and construction engineers. This group moved from the second lowest to the highest quintile of the net income distribution. This increase in inequality is associated with a deterioration of service quality. The reform reduced average scores of a peer ranking for architects by 18%.

How Important is Precautionary Labor Supply?
Oxford Economic Papers, 70(3), pp. 868–891.
We quantify the importance of precautionary labour supply defined as the difference between hours supplied in the presence of risk and hours under perfect foresight. Using the German Socio-Economic Panel from 2001 to 2012 we estimate the effect of wage risk on labour supply and test for constrained adjustment of labour supply. We find that married men choose on average about 2.8% of their hours of work to shield against wage shocks. The effect is strongest for self-employed who we find to be unconstrained in their hours choices, but also relevant for other groups with more persistent hours constraints. If the self-employed faced the same wage risk as the median civil servant, their hours of work would reduce by 4.5%.

Learning Ricardian Equivalence.
Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 82, pp. 273-288.
This paper tests whether subjects learn to comply with the Ricardian Equivalence proposition in a life cycle consumption laboratory experiment. Our results suggest that Ricardian Equivalence does not hold on average: tax changes have a significant and strong impact on consumption choice. Using individual consumption time series, the behaviour of 56% of our subjects can be classified as inconsistent with the Ricardian Equivalence proposition. Classifying subjects according to rules of thumb that best describe their behaviour, we find that subjects switch less to rules that theoretically violate Ricardian Equivalence in later rounds compared to earlier rounds. This implies that some subjects learn to comply with Ricardian Equivalence by changing their consumption strategy. However, the aggregate effect of taxation on consumption persists, even after eight rounds of repetition.

Getting the Poor to Work: Three Welfare Increasing Reforms for a Busy Germany.
Public Finance Analysis, 73(1), pp. 1-41.
We study three budget-neutral reforms of the German tax and transfer system designed to improve work incentives for people with low incomes: a feasible flat tax reform that provides a basic income which is equal to the current level of the means tested unemployment benefit, and two alternative reforms that involve employment subsidies to stimulate participation and full-time work, respectively. We estimate labor supply reactions and welfare effects using a microsimulation model based on household data from the Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) and a structural labor supply model. We find that all three reforms increase labor supply in the first decile of the income distribution. However, the flat tax scenario reduces overall labor supply by 4.9%, the reform scenario designed to increase participation reduces labor supply by 1%, while the reform that provides improved incentives to work full-time has negligible effects on overall labor supply. With equal welfare weights, aggregate welfare gains are realizable under all three reforms.

Entry Regulation and Entrepreneurship: A Natural Experiment in German Craftsmanship.
Empirical Economics, 47(3), pp. 1067-1101.
Reprinted in
Holtemöller, O. (ed.), (2017). How Can We Boost Competition in the Services Sector?, Baden-Baden: Nomos, pp. 89-133.
This paper uses the 2004 amendment to the German Trade and Crafts Code as a natural experiment for assessing the causal effects of this reform on the probabilities of being self-employed and of transition into and out of self-employment. This is achieved by using repeated cross-sections (2002-2009) of German microcensus data. I apply the difference-in-differences technique for three groups of craftsmen which were subject to different intensities of treatment. The results show that the complete exemption from the educational entry requirement has fostered self-employment significantly by substantially increasing the entry probabilities, while exit rates have remained unaffected. I find similar, though weaker relative effects for the treatment groups that were subject to a reduction of entry costs or a partial exemption from the entry requirements. Moreover, I consider effect heterogeneity within each of the treatment groups with respect to gender and vocational training, and show that the deregulation of entry requirements has been most effective for untrained workers.

Precautionary and Entrepreneurial Savings: New Evidence from German Households.
Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, 75(4), pp. 528–555.
Various studies interpret the positive correlation between income risk and wealth as evidence of significant precautionary savings. However, these high estimates emerge from pooling non-entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs, without controlling for heterogeneity. This article provides evidence for Germany based on representative panel data that includes private wealth balance sheets. Entrepreneurs, who face high income risk, hold more wealth than employees, but this tendency is not because of precautionary motives. Instead, they appear to save more for their old age, because they are usually not covered by statutory pension insurance. The analysis accounts for endogeneity in entrepreneurial choice and heterogeneous risk attitudes.
