Was it worth it? Was anything learned from these experiments that could not have been learned by other, and cheaper, means? Could the experiments have been better designed or analyzed? These are some of the questions addressed by the contributors to this volume, the result of a conference on social experimentation sponsored in 1981 by the National Bureau of Economic Research. The first section of the book looks at four types of experiments and what each accomplished. Frank P. Stafford examines the negative income tax experiments, Dennis J. Aigner considers the experiments with electricity pricing based on time of use, Harvey S. Rosen evaluates housing allowance experiments, and Jeffrey E. Harris reports on health experiments. In the second section, addressing experimental design and analysis, Jerry A. Hausman and David A. Wise highlight the absence of random selection of participants in social experiments, Frederick Mosteller and Milton C. Weinstein look specifically at the design of medical experiments, and Ernst W. Stromsdorfer examines the effects of experiments on policy. Each chapter is followed by the commentary of one or more distinguished economists. 410 0$aConference report (National Bureau of Economic Research) 606 $aElectric utilities$xRates$xTime-of-use pricing$zUnited States$xEvaluation$vCongresses 606 $aEvaluation research (Social action programs)$vCongresses 606 $aHousing subsidies$zUnited States$xEvaluation$vCongresses 606 $aMedical policy$zUnited States$xEvaluation$vCongresses 606 $aNegative income tax$zUnited States$xEvaluation$vCongresses 610 $aexperiment, economics, economy, money, monetary, finance, financial, wealth, tax, taxes, policy, history, historical, insurance, health, wellness, subsidies, housing, programs, analysis, design, academic, scholarly, research, conference, electricity, prices, pricing, participant, economist, allowance, program, macro, micro, policies. 615 0$aElectric utilities$xRates$xTime-of-use pricing$xEvaluation 615 0$aEvaluation research (Social action programs) 615 0$aHousing subsidies$xEvaluation 615 0$aMedical policy$xEvaluation 615 0$aNegative income tax$xEvaluation 676 $a361.6072 701 $aHausman$b Jerry A$027831 701 $aWise$b David A$0124389 712 02$aNational Bureau of Economic Research. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777030303321 996 $aSocial experimentation$93804781 997 $aUNINA
