This week in research #123

Here's what caught my eye in research over the past week:

  • James and Watson (with ungated earlier version here) find using an online survey experiment that state-administered cash transfers (such as Alaska’s Permanent Fund Dividend Program) likely attract new residents
  • Wang et al. find that the online and mobile game Genshin Impact had a significant positive effect on China's product exports, likely by fostering a more favourable perception of China among people in other countries
  • Liu et al. find a significant child penalty in the rental housing market in China, with couples with children 8.0 percentage points less likely to receive a response from landlords, and 5.9 percentage points less likely to be invited to an open house
