Here's what caught my eye in research over the past week:
- Hu and Su find that housing wealth appreciation significantly improves individual happiness in China
- Díez-Rituerto et al. (with ungated earlier version here) study gender differences in willingness to guess in multiple-choice questions in a medical internship exam in Spain, and find that, in line with past research, women answer fewer questions than men, but that reducing the number of alternative answers reduces the difference between men and women among those who answer most of the questions
- Chen, Fang, and Wang (with ungated earlier version here) find that holding a deanship in China increases patent applications by 15.2 percent, and that deans' misuse of power distorts resource allocation
