Best of #econtwitter - JMPs 2022 special edition, part eleven
If your thread (or your student’s, or your colleague’s) is missing below, submissions are as always extremely welcome.
Previously: 2022 JMPs part one, part two, part three, part four, part five, part six, part seven, part eight, part nine, part ten. Editions from prior years are here.
As written last year: Plausibly these JMP editions have the highest densities of good content of all the newsletters. These are presented in even less of a sense of any order than usual.

An extremely interesting JMP by Karim Fajury @USC_Econ karimfajury.com/home
Little causal evidence as to whether higher income reduces the propensity to engage in corruption.
Karim painstakingly gathers a novel dataset on vote buying and uses a RDD on cash transfer program.

What are people’s perceived costs of looking for a new job? Do these expectations predict on-the-job search behavior? My co-author and student Armando Miano @ArmMiano, on the market this year, explores these questions in his JMP: scholar.harvard.edu/amiano/research 1/9

Thank you for the shoutout @HannoLustig! My JMP unveils the role of rebalancing demand in explaining stock returns after monetary shocks. Intuition: investors with allocation targets amplify the effect of short-lived monetary shocks on stock prices. Paper:xu-lu.net/_files/ugd/881…

Check out this #JMP by Tyler Paul, a brilliant UCSD student on the Job Market 2022/23!
web: sites.google.com/view/tylerlpau…
Tyler studies how revised data on macro variables biases the estimation of prevailing tests of information frictions à la Coibion and Gorodnichenko

Thanks for the shoutout @shoshievass! I study competition b/t payment networks, like Visa/MC/Amex. I estimate a 2-sided model to study competition + regulations. I find entry ↑ merchant fees, ↑ rewards, ↓ welfare, also repealing Durbin ↑ welfare. luluywang.com

Next up; @AakashKalyani's job market paper develops a new way to identify patents closely tied to new actual inventions. He extracts technical terms from the text of patent documents; patents featuring a larger than normal share of new technical phrases he calls "creative"
![Twitter avatar for @mattsclancy](https://substackcdn.com/image/twitter_name/w_96/mattsclancy.jpg)
So, creative patents are (more) legit. What's happening with them? Even as the annual number of patents has been on the rise, the number of them classified as creative has been on the decline (figure is in per capita terms)!

Thanks a lot @instrumenthull! Sounds like an good time to say a bit more about the paper (written with my amazing co-author @LoeweSimon!).
Peter already gave the perfect TL;DR version.

In any of those cases, quantifying uncertainty is hard... Which is the starting point of my JMP. My main question is: Can I create prediction intervals that are robust to those issues?

Excited to share my job market paper.
I study how trust in politicians affects German MPs' (members of parliament) concern with the provision of policies for the public good. When trust is low, politicians tend to reduce this concern. A 🧵
