Tournaments with multi-tasking
Sammendrag
The standard contest model in which participants compete in a single dimension is well
understood and documented. In this paper we propose an extension in which competition
ensues in several dimensions and a competitor that wins a certain number of these is
awarded a prize. We look at the design of this contest from the point of view of
maximizing effort in the contest (per dimension and totally), and reducing the cost to the
designer of providing effort incentives. The standard Tullock model and its results are
encompassed by our framework.
