  • Does accrual accounting make municipalities spend less

    Open AccessStefano Caiazza, Franco Fiordelisi et al.ARTICLEPublic Choice2026References: 33

    Accrual accounting in the public sector aims to enhance fiscal transparency, decision-making, comparability, and cost-effectiveness. The Italian reform of public sector accounting in 2011 provides an excellent quasi-natural experiment for studying the effect of accrual accounting on public financial management. Our results indicate that accrual accounting has a disciplining effect on local public spending, strengthening fiscal positions. Importan…

  • Eudaimonic wellbeing and life expectancy

    Open AccessLeonardo Becchetti, Fabio Pisani et al.ARTICLEKyklos2023

    We investigate the relationship between eudaimonic wellbeing (sense of life) and subjective survival probability (SSP), a proxy for self‐assessed life expectancy. Our econometric analysis uses 220,601 observations of SHARE panel data from 2006 to 2015. We find evidence of a robust and strong positive relationship between eudaimonic wellbeing and subjective survival probability after controlling for self‐assessed health, coupled with a negative ef…

  • The Determinants of Outreach Performance of Social Business

    We analyze factors affecting outreach performance of a large sample of (type A) social cooperatives in Italy taking into account their heterogeneity with a multi‐output stochastic distance function frontier. We find that cooperative age, innovation leading to new products/customer segments, managerial turnover, target programming and shareholder variety are positively and significantly (while shareholder meetings, the number of volunteers and of …

  • Virtuous Interactions in Removing Exclusion

    Leonardo Becchetti, Pierluigi Conzo et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Development Studies2011

    We outline a methodology which aims to give an answer to the widespread demand of impact analyses by regulators or by funding agencies which need to evaluate the current and past performance of development projects and may lack time series evidence. We devise a retrospective panel data approach to evaluate the dynamics of the effects of fair trade affiliation on the schooling decisions of a sample of Thai organic rice producers across the past 20…
