Primes¶
- Screening
- develop this delegation logic in their canonical contract-theory treatment.
This sourceComprehensive contract-theory treatment; develops the delegation logic by which screening menus shift type-revelation from the principal to the agent, including detailed derivations of optimal menu design under adverse selection.
- develop this delegation logic in their canonical contract-theory treatment.
Mechanisms¶
- Risk-Adjusted Contract
- Terms this intricate are hard to reason about and easy to over- or under-restrict, and if they start tracking the actor's type rather than their controllable behavior, the method slides out of moral-hazard mitigation into hidden-type screening or unfair exclusion.
This sourceDistinguishes hidden-type screening from moral-hazard contracting for unobservable actions.
