Table 2. Characteristics of the incentive patterns
"... In PAGE 9: ... Characteristics. The main properties of the proposed incentive patterns are summarized in Table2 . The collective and community pattern seem to be too restrictive with regard to their scalability and fuzzy accounting.... ..."
Table 1. Sample of Research on the Returns to Personality
2001
"... In PAGE 32: ... Notwithstanding the strong likelihood that the economic reward to particular incentive-enhancing preferences depends on the details of the employment situation, there is some evidence of general patterns of reward. Table1 summarizes the large sample studies of the importance of personality and other noncognitive traits as determinants of earnings. The survey of research by Jencks et al.... ..."

Table 6. Intensity of Monetary Incentives
"... In PAGE 21: ... We use a tobit to analyze the variation on the discount rages, as at their lowest the contracts that provide lower monetary incentive intensity have 0 discounts. [Note: Table6 here, with intensity of monetary incentives] Results. The most remarkable fact about Table 6 is its consistency with the results on the contractual clauses.... In PAGE 21: ... [Note: Table 6 here, with intensity of monetary incentives] Results. The most remarkable fact about Table6 is its consistency with the results on the contractual clauses. The same variables that explain the degree of asymmetry in the allocation of decision rights explain here the use and intensity of the monetary incentives provided.... In PAGE 21: ... Their signs are for the most part entirely consistent with the theoretical predictions from section 3. The lack of predictive power of the sale discount specifications (the second and three sets of regressions in Table6 ) is puzzling, particularly compared to the high significance levels found in the rest of our analyses. The pseudo-R 2 for these estimations is extremely low, suggesting that the agency-related variables that explain (since it creates a larger double marginalization problem) it has the potential to damage... ..."

Table 1 Definitions of variables used in the statistical analysis of English proficiency among immigrants from non-English-speaking countries, 2000 US Census
"... In PAGE 4: ...three broad concepts: exposure, efficiency and economic incentives. The exposure, efficiency and economic incentive variables will only be very briefly outlined here ( Table1 ), as they are not of primary interest for this study and serve merely to control statistically for effects which, if not taken into account, could bias the relationship between age at migration and English- speaking proficiency. These control variables are highly statistically significant with their expected signs.... In PAGE 6: ... A different measure is used when the analysis is performed solely for immigrants from Mexico. Hence, the empirical counterpart of the conceptual framework developed by Chiswick and Miller (1995, 2007a, 2007b) that is the basis for the analysis that follows is: LANGC30f(Age at Migration, Educational Attainment, YSM, YSMSQ, ABROAD5, MARRIED, Children, NON-MET, SOUTH, MILES, MILESQ, Linguistic Distance, CONC, COLONY, REFUGEE) The variables, mnemonics and hypothesised effects are defined briefly in Table1 and in the Appendix, and in detail in Chiswick and Miller (2007c). The 2000 US Census Data The data for the estimations presented in the next section are from the US 2000 Census of Population, Public Use Microdata Sample, and are for the 1% sample of the foreign-born adult (25C164 years old) men and women from non- English-speaking countries.... ..."
Table 1 reveals different combinations of neighborhood sizes m and population sizes n, henceforth called the relative neighborhood size (RNS) |Nm(i)| n
"... In PAGE 10: ... For m = 1, 2 and n = 6, 12 the RNS |Nm(i)| n can vary from 1 4 for (m, n) = (1, 12) to 5 6 for (2, 6) [via the intermediate levels of 5 12 for (2, 12) and 1 2 for (1, 6)]. Participants repeatedly encounter all four situations indicated in Table1 . How- ever, we do not attempt to conduct a full-factorial comparison of the four different relative neighborhood sizes but rather focus on situations involving equal economic incentives (opportunity costs) of investing in the public good.... ..."
Table 1: Summary Data on Capital Investment and Employment
"... In PAGE 19: ... General Company Information The first part of the survey focused on specific company information such as employment, capital investment, employment benefits, and economic development incentives received by the company. Summary data on capital investment and employment are provided in Table1 . These data reveal that, on average, the responding suppliers employ 150 employees with an average annual salary of $55,412 which is 46 percent higher than the statewide average for all manufacturing jobs.... ..."

Table 1. Overview of incentive patterns and their properties
"... In PAGE 5: ... An incentive pattern induces that an entity enters into a otherwise detrimental commitment. The incentive patterns and their most im- portant properties are summarized in Table1 . It provides a foundation for the choice of incentives that remunerate for entering into commitments.... In PAGE 8: ... For this purpose, we have to choose an incentive pattern that supports asymmetric roles. According to Table1 , the note pattern appears most appropriate. This is because the note pattern provides better enforcement of remuneration than the community pat- tern.... ..."
