🆕 Policy Paper 🚨 The Demand for Economic Narratives 📘 w/ Sebastian Blesse, Klaus Gründler & Philipp Heil 🧠 Do people actually value economic narratives — or just numbers? 💸 Turns out: households are willing to pay for narratives. 1/4 #Narratives #BehavioralEconomics @ifoeducation.bsky.social

💵 Avg. WTP for an expert narrative: $4.23 (compared to avg. WTP for a numerical Fed forecast: $3.61) 🎯 Demand is driven mainly by intrinsic motives – people want to understand the economy. 🔬 Based on a large-scale, incentivized online experiment with > 9,000 representative U.S. households. 2/4

🚀 KICK-OFF 🚀 Over the next five years, I’ll be working jointly with ROCK YOUR LIFE on a large randomized-controlled trial with disadvantaged adolescents to generate robust, policy-relevant evidence on how mentoring can be effectively scaled. [1/2]
