Contract enforcement, social efficiency, and distribution: some experimental evidence.


by Wu, Steven Y.^Roe, Brian

(0.003) N = 1,720 Log pseudo likelihood = -693.36 Pseudo [R.sup.2] = 0.37 Note: Double asterisks (**) indicate significance at 5% level. Single asterisk (*) indicates significance at 10% level. The estimation procedure is a probit regression with standard errors adjusted for clustering on experiments (in parentheses). Demographic variables for gender. age, GPA, and employment status are included as control variables but their coefficients were not reported. Table 5.
