🚨🚨New Paper Alert🚨🚨

We embed a within-subject experiment with two lying paradigms in the 2020 German Socio-Economic Panel.

The difference between paradigms? *Observability* 🔍

In one, we know if you lied to win more money; in the other, we do not.

📢 Our belief elicitation tool is now available for oTree and Qualtrics! 🎉

It lets you elicit parametric belief distributions with just two sliders.

👉 Try it out or download here: tmeissner.com/tools

Big thanks to my coauthors @pgonzalezfernandez.bsky.social and @boschrosa.bsky.social

Not yet as far as I am aware. We focus on the comparison with the bins method - the most commonly used method to elicit inflation belief distributions. But I totally agree that it would be cool to have a systematic comparison of all the new (and old) methods.

So I asked ChatGPTo1 to create 3 new Cognitive Reflection Test questions - absolutely impressed with the first two! Third is meh, but overall amazing. Earlier models were quite bad a this, just rephrasing the original questions. Awesome progress.

Okay, Not sure what is happening with all the new followers, but here is a cool new paper 🚨

We propose a new method to elicit full belief distributions with a simple tool using only two sliders. It works really well compared to standard methods to measure inflation beliefs.
