[2] “You’re Doin’ Fine, Oklahoma!”: Examining the Multiplier Effect of Tulsa Remote Program
In this study, the objective is to explore the multiplier effects linked to the Tulsa Remote Program. The research employs a synthetic Difference-in-Differences (DiD) model, a gravity model, and a conditional logistic regression model to analyze the patterns of internal migration following the implementation of the program.
[3] Attracting Remote Workers: Overview of U.S. Programs (with Cynthia Rogers, forthcoming)
Proposal accepted by Economic Development Quarterly
We develop a database and classification criteria of Remote Work Attraction Incentive Programs. Specifically, we investigate the connections between these programs and dynamic economic channels, such as self-selection into internal migration. We develop a theoretical model of moving costs which considers spatial extensive and intensive margins. A second channel involves interjurisdictional competition such as the Tiebout-Tullock hypothesis and yard-stick competition.
