Unpublished Works and Book Chapters

Over the course of my academic career, I’ve written extensively on topics in experimental and behavioral economics, governance, and higher education policy. Some of these papers were shared in conference settings or circulated among colleagues, but were never formally published. I include them here to preserve their insights and contributions to ongoing scholarly conversations.

In addition, the pace of publication can be so slow that articles written and circulated among colleagues do not show up in print for years after they are first available. Finally, some of my most important works are only available in book chapters, not readily accessible through university libraries.
