Sellers are referred to as \u201cworkers\u201d and have the possibility to provide \u201cemployers\u201d with costly but credible information about their \u201cproductivity\u201d. Economic theory suggests that in this setup, unraveling takes place and a number of different types are correctly identified in equilibrium. While we do observe a substantial degree of information disclosure, we also find that unraveling is typically not as complete as predicted by economic theory. The behavior of both workers and employers impedes unraveling in that there is too little disclosure. Workers are generally reluctant to disclose their private information, and employers enforce this behavior by bidding less competitively if workers reveal compared to the case where they conceal information.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Volker Benndorf, 2018 Games, 9 (2)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-241","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-publications"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=241"}],"version-history":[{"count":28,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2562,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/241\/revisions\/2562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=241"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=241"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flex.uni-frankfurt.de\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=241"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
