Screening and Signaling in Communication*
研究发送方与接收方在重复战略沟通中，因双方信息不完全而如何策略性地使用信息，比较不同沟通模式对政策质量和福利的影响。
Abstract In this paper, we analyze a model of repeated strategic communication between a sender and a receiver. The sender has private information on a policy‐relevant variable but does not know the receiver's motives. Together with the desire of the sender to please the receiver and the desire of the receiver to be pleased, the two‐sided incomplete information creates an interesting communication problem in which players can choose to use information strategically. We analyze various modes of communication, which allow for information transmission, and we compare them in terms of both the quality of the policy implemented and the welfare of the players.
