Talk:Signalling (economics)

message: I suggest to add the 73 paper (Spence, M. (1973). “Job Market Signaling” Quarterly Journal of Economics 87(3): 355-74) to the references since it is mentioned in the text (and is the seminal paper on the topic and the one which earned Spence the Nobel prize).
I agree but I was unable to find a web link that was publicly available.  I shall contact the publisher (OUP) and they usually will grant such requests (esp. when it is so well known) if I cannot find a better source.  I also have a copy of the paper as submitted by Spence which he gave rights to publish, however, the peer reviewed QEJ paper would be a more robust source for documentation.

message: According to dictionary.com, signalling is the British spelling vs. signaling in the US.  Most of these articles are published in the US, so that's an argument for "correcting" the spelling, but I'm probably biased as an American.  And thoughts? Agreeney (talk) 17:32, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm going to go ahead and change the body text to match the title as that seems to be the accepted policy. However, I am not a user of British English so It would be great if a native could check the article again. Colincbn (talk) 07:34, 8 April 2011 (UTC)

message: I maybe wrong but haven't the roles of the Principal and Agents been flipped? The Agent is usually the consumer or the buyer and the principal is the one who offers the trade.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.14.219.13 (talk) 18:06, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

message: I always thought it was called the sheepskin effect because diplomas (and other official documents) used to be made of sheepskin

message: The diagram that i have twice removed had no explanation in the article nor adequate labeling. The creator of the diagram has ranted at me a bit on our talk pages, so i politely explained the problem, thanked him for his efforts, and asked that at the least he provide labeling so that non-experts (the target audience) could make sense of it. That, for me, would be enough. I'm not trying to closely edit, just removing a big chunk that may be good in theory but is unhelpful if it's going to be left incomplete. I've waited a bit, and there's been no change, so i've removed it again. Now i invite other editors: if you know the subject well enough and agree it has value, please integrate it into the article. I can't see how it meets WP guidelines as it was (but chime in if you disagree). To repeat: No offense -- i'd be happy to see it back in, with explanation. "alyosha" (talk) 20:53, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
