The interaction of economic agents is one of the most important elements in economic analyses. Social interactions on subjective outcomes, behavior, or decisions, are inherently …
This paper studies nonparametric estimation of treatment and spillover effects using observational data from a single large network. We consider a model in which interference …

We identify and estimate heterogeneous social effects within groups of individuals that make binary choices. These heterogeneous social effects, which include peer and contextual …
This paper studies the uniqueness of a quantal response equilibrium (QRE) in a broad class of n-person normal form games. We make three main contributions. First, we show that the …
Despite the growing interest in causal and statistical inference for settings with data dependence, few methods currently exist to account for missing data in dependent data …

This paper studies estimation and inference in a dyadic network formation model with observed covariates, unobserved heterogeneity, and nontransferable utilities. With the …
Accurate estimation of treatment effects is essential for decision-making across various scientific fields. This task, however, becomes challenging in areas like social sciences and …
Nonprogressive diffusion describes the dissemination of behavior on a social network, where the agents are allowed to reverse their decisions as time evolves. It has a wide variety …
