Bowles, Jeremy; Larreguy, Horacio; Liu, Shelley, 2020, "Replication Data for: Countering misinformation via WhatsApp: Preliminary evidence from the COVID-19 pandemic in Zimbabwe", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/MDF4SO, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:FspZacdOP1tUlYbiS/6YDg== [fileUNF]
We examine how information from trusted social media sources can shape knowledge and behavior when misinformation and mistrust are widespread. In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Zimbabwe, we partnered with a trusted civil society organization to randomize the timing of the dissemination of messages aimed at targeting misinformation about th... |

This package contains the replication data for: "Trading frictions in Indian village economies". The data include the underlying raw and estimation data files, the replication code and the questionnaires. There are 6 datasets containing data from 4 surveys: a survey with original recipients in June 2013, a survey with non-recipient farmers in Febru... |
Crépon, Bruno; Devoto, Florencia; Duflo, Esther; Parienté, William, 2019, "“Verifying the internal validity of a flagship RCT: A review of Crépon, Devoto, Duflo and Parienté”: A rejoinder", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/C6OW6C, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:oOOjb7LYS99ixpG8wD6xbA== [fileUNF]
In a recent paper, Bédecarrats, Guerin, Morvan-Roux and Roubaud (2019) re- analyze the data from a randomized controlled trial of the impact of the program of Al Amana, a microcredit organization in Morocco, which we published in 2015 (Crépon, Devoto, Duflo, and Parienté, 2015). They make a number of strong claims about the validity of our appro... |
Fafchamps, Marcel; Quinn, Simon, 2019, "Replication Data for: Networks and Manufacturing Firms in Africa: Results from a Randomized Field Experiment", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HW9JQY, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:MklmBxnQIjbQ4/OqEhNtdA== [fileUNF]
We run a novel field experiment to link managers of African manufacturing firms. The experiment resembles the many forms of interaction that business and community organizations offer to their members. The design features exogenous link formation, exogenous seeding of information, and exogenous assignment to treatment and placebo. We study the impa... |
Karlan, Dean; Zinman, Jonathan, 2019, "Identifying Information Asymmetries in a Consumer Credit Market", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/LZUZNA, Harvard Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:2GCmuxX0BwGikydtXPcE+Q== [fileUNF]
Information asymmetries are important in theory but difficult to identify in practice. We estimate the presence and importance of hidden information and hidden action problems in a consumer credit market using a new field experiment methodology. We randomized 58,000 direct mail offers to former clients of a major South African lender along three di... |

Karlan, Dean; McConnell, Margaret; Mullainathan, Sendhil; Zinman, Jonathan, 2019, "Getting to the Top of Mind: How Reminders Increase Savings", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/UJD5OP, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:WFOU8k7Z5R80xurkco6PdQ== [fileUNF]
We provide evidence from field experiments with three different banks that reminder messages increase commitment attainment for clients who recently opened commitment savings accounts. Messages that mention both savings goals and financial incentives are particularly effective, whereas other content variations such as gain versus loss framing do no... |
Olken, Benjamin; Onishi, Junko; Wong, Susan, 2014, "Project Generasi: Conditional Community Block Grants in Indonesia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/26045, Harvard Dataverse, V5
We report an experiment in 3,000 villages that tested whether incentives improve aid efficacy. Villages received block grants for maternal and child health and education that incorporated relative performance incentives. Subdistricts were randomized into incentives, an otherwise identical program without incentives, or control. Incentives initially... |

Atkin, David; Khandelwal, Amit; Osman, Adam, 2019, "Replication Data for: Measuring Productivity: Lessons from Tailored Surveys and Productivity Benchmarking", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/PYWKJH, Harvard Dataverse, V1
We use tailored surveys and benchmarking in the flat-weave rug industry to better understand the shortcomings of standard productivity measures. TFPQ performs poorly because of variation in product specifications across firms. Controlling for specifications aligns TFPQ with lab benchmarks.We also collect quality metrics to construct quality product... |
