Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Microeconomics
  • Finance
  • Macroeconomics

His main research concerns Microeconomics, Wage, Labour economics, Efficiency wage and Quality. He frequently studies issues relating to Involuntary unemployment and Microeconomics. He has included themes like Moral hazard, Relational contract, Nash equilibrium and Adverse selection in his Involuntary unemployment study.

James M. Malcomson integrates Wage with Private information retrieval in his research. In his study, Performance pay, Unemployment and Incentive compatibility is inextricably linked to Outcome, which falls within the broad field of Efficiency wage. His Quality research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Payment, Purchasing and Fixed price.

His most cited work include:

  • IMPLICIT CONTRACTS, INCENTIVE COMPATIBILITY, AND INVOLUNTARY UNEMPLOYMENT (607 citations)
  • Investments, Holdup, and the Form of Market Contracts. (403 citations)
  • Work Incentives, Hierarchy, and Internal Labor Markets (329 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Microeconomics, Labour economics, Wage, Incentive and Efficiency wage. In general Microeconomics, his work in Stochastic game, Bargaining power, Moral hazard and Profit maximization is often linked to Principal linking many areas of study. His research investigates the link between Labour economics and topics such as Productivity that cross with problems in Relational contract.

His Wage research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Bond, Cost of living, Payment and Econometrics. In his research on the topic of Incentive, Expected cost is strongly related with Fixed fee. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Efficiency wage, concentrating on Outcome and intersecting with Performance pay.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microeconomics (31.53%)
  • Labour economics (34.23%)
  • Wage (28.83%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2018)?

  • Public service (9.01%)
  • Incentive (25.23%)
  • Microeconomics (31.53%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

James M. Malcomson mostly deals with Public service, Incentive, Microeconomics, Payment and Stochastic game. His Public service investigation overlaps with Competition and Quality. His work carried out in the field of Incentive brings together such families of science as Productivity and Relational contract.

The concepts of his Productivity study are interwoven with issues in Dual labour market and Investment. His Payment study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Marketing, Profit, Econometrics and Monopoly. His studies in Stochastic game integrate themes in fields like Bargaining power and Pareto principle.

Between 2012 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • RELATIONAL INCENTIVE CONTRACTS WITH PERSISTENT PRIVATE INFORMATION (13 citations)
  • Competition in public service provision: The role of not-for-profit providers (6 citations)
  • Relational Incentive Contracts with Persistent Private Information (3 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Microeconomics
  • Finance
  • Macroeconomics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microeconomics, Incentive, Ratchet effect, Principal and Stochastic game. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pareto principle and Public economics in addition to Microeconomics.
