Theoretically, the arguments for doing so are based on the arts and culture being public goods or providing positive externalities. The size of the externalities for a variety of cultural goods has been empirically investigated in numerous stated preference studies. However, the existence of externalities has not previously been tested as a causal relation. In this paper we are testing the existence of externalities of cultural consumption (cultural capital externalities) for Danish theatres. We are doing this based on a theoretical model, where a private consumption jointly produces private and public goods. We exploit variation generated by a national ticket purchasing scheme to estimate the causal effects of theatre consumption on public returns. We find that there are significant cultural capital externalities for users, but we find no effects for non-users, pointing towards peer-effects rather than externalities. Even though there are some limitations to our study, it shows that it is possible to test the existence of externalities of cultural consumption in an empirically convincing causal set-up.</p>","PeriodicalId":47739,"journal":{"name":"Kyklos","volume":"78 3","pages":"1259-1275"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/kykl.12469","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144525180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use microdata from the European Social Survey (ESS) merged with macroeconomic variables from official sources. Econometric estimations are carried out using multilevel models. Our results show a positive association between public expenditure on education and individual well-being. However, this effect is not homogeneous across educational levels, as robust evidence of a positive contribution is only found for tertiary education. Furthermore, we explore whether this relationship is contingent on individuals' ideological preferences. Our findings indicate that individuals who espouse a conservative ideology exhibit a weaker effect compared to those with a progressive mindset. Nevertheless, the positive correlation between education expenditure and well-being persists for the latter group. To assess the robustness of our results, we have replicated the calculations using a different survey, specifically the Eurobarometer, and conducted estimations with alternative methodologies, which confirm their consistency.</p>","PeriodicalId":47739,"journal":{"name":"Kyklos","volume":"78 3","pages":"1225-1241"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/kykl.12466","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144524770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For instance, measures to curb tax evasion are only meaningful once the evading entities are systematically detected. I propose a method to econometrically detect units of observation that are potentially associated with malpractice. The method exhibits a remarkable detection rate and requires two stages. In the first stage, (biased) regression coefficients are systematically obtained through fixed-effects estimation (with varying lags). In the second stage, a structure is imposed on the (biased) estimates to single out the units of observation that are likely to involve malpractice. The method is explained in the context of sportspersons who may resort to drug intake (without reporting, for obvious reasons) for the qualifiers before an event of central importance. What makes the proposed exercise challenging is that unobserved drug intake may be correlated with observed physical attributes that may serve as regressors in a model to explain performance. Chemical processes of detection are often known to be costly and unhealthy and may not be free from errors.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47739,"journal":{"name":"Kyklos","volume":"78 3","pages":"1211-1224"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144524560","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
