“…Because the session level data consist of only six observations for each test, we m ust use the small sample distribution of U rather than the normal approximation. We are thus constrained to using only two signi cance levels|.10 and .05|rather than the near continuum available for the normal approximation see Fligner and Policello 1981 Dummy v ariable is just the product of the round variable and the observation dummy; this variable is intended to capture time varying e ects of allowing for observation of other players. Finally, w e included session dummies to control for possible di erences across sessions; to save space we h a v e suppressed the coe cient estimates on these session dummies.…”

This paper presents experimental results from an analysis of two similar games, the repeated ultimatum game and the repeated best shot game. The experiment examines whether the amount and content of information given to players a ects the evolution of play in the two games. In one experimental treatment, subjects in both games observe not only their own actions and payo s, but also those of one randomly chosen pair of players in the just completed round of play. In the other treatment, subjects in both games observe only their own actions and payo s. We present evidence suggesting that observation of other players' actions and payo s may a ect the evolution of play relative to the case of no observation.

“…In terms of demographic characteristics, we HG firms tend to be younger in all periods, and comparatively smaller only in the initial period (see Figure 7 and 8). To corroborate the graphical inspection of the graphs, we provide a formal test of distributional equality between the densities estimated for HG and other firms, resorting to the Fligner and Policello (1981) test of stochastic equality (hereafter, FP). The test assesses which of the two distributions dominates over the other by measuring whether, if one randomly selects a firm from the HG group and a firm from the other firms, the former has a probability greater than 0.5 of having a greater value of a given firm attribute.…”

Exploiting a representative panel covering the period of the China's miracle, we find that HG firms outperform other firms, showing higher productivity, higher profitability, larger investment intensity, higher sales from product innovation, lower interest expenses and lower leverage. HG firms are also relatively young, larger in size, more often exporters and more concentrated in non-State-controlled companies. Terms of use: Documents inHowever, regression analysis suggests that none of the indicators of structural characteristics and performance considered above displays any statistical association with the ability to persistently replicate high-growth over time. The results speak against the long-run effectiveness of policies supporting the creation and backing of high-growth firms.JEL codes: D22, D24, L26

Abstract-Perimeter distinction in a wireless network is the ability to distinguish locations belonging to different perimeters. It is complementary to existing localization techniques. A drawback of the localization method is that when a transmitter is at the edge of an area, an algorithm with isotropic error will estimate its location in the wrong area at least half of the time. In contrast, perimeter distinction classifies the location as being in one area or the adjacent regardless of the transmitter position within the area. In this paper, we use the naturally different wireless fading conditions to accurately distinguish locations across perimeters. We examine the use of two types of wireless measurements: received signal strength (RSS) and wireless link signature (WLS), and propose multiple methods to retain good distinction rates even when the receiver faces power manipulation by malicious transmitters. Using extensive measurements of indoor and outdoor perimeters, we find that WLS outperforms RSS in various fading conditions. Even without using signal power WLS can achieve accurate perimeter distinction up to 80%. When we train our perimeter distinction method with multiple measurements within the same perimeter, we show that we are able to improve the accuracy of perimeter distinction, up to 98%.
