Economics Letters 170 : 6-9. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.econlet.2018.05.026 | Abstract: | This paper investigates the effects of vertical integration on screening decisions using data from the Korean movie industry. We find that integrated theaters show their affiliated movies more than nonaffiliated movies, and more than nonintegrated theaters do. However, this gap reduces during the peak times of the day and after the opening week. Our evidence suggests that the integrated theaters’ screening decisions favorable to their own movies are better understood as the result of dealing with the incentive misalignment than as the result of foreclosing other movies. | Source Title: | Economics Letters | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/191511 | ISSN: | 0165-1765 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.econlet.2018.05.026 |
