- 요약This dissertation presents three chapters intersecting development, environmental, and behavioral economics. The first chapter uses a lab-in-the-field experiment in Nairobi to show that anticipating a cash transfer-without yet receiving it-reduces workers' productivity in noncognitive tasks and worsens consumption decisions, revealing a psychological effect to income shocks that goes beyond traditional theory. The second chapter analyzes nine years of meter-level electricity data from commercial and residential accounts in central Ghana. It documents persistently low usage over time, suggesting limits to infrastructure-driven development without demand-side support, and estimates price elasticities across the consumption distribution, providing base numbers to how price policy can help promote electricity use. The third chapter tests a nonlinear pricing policy for clean cooking fuel, also in central Ghana. The results show that size-based subsidies can target poorer, more price-sensitive users and reduce public spending by 30% without sacrificing demand. Together, these studies contribute new insights on how behavioral responses and microeconomic incentives shape development outcomes.
