Mar 09, 2014 Robert Frank and Philip Cook, in their classic book, “The Winner-Take-All Society,” wrote “winner-take-all markets translate small differences in performance into large differences in reward.”. A winner-take-all market is a market in which a product or service which is only slightly (1%) better than the competitors gets disproportionately large (90–100%) share of or all revenues for that class of products or services. It occurs when the top producer of a product earns a lot more than their competitors. Examples of winner-take-all markets include the sports and entertainment markets.

Career[edit]

Born in Coral Gables, Florida, in either 1939 or 1945. Frank graduated from Coral Gables High School in 1962.^[1][4] Frank received a B.S. in mathematics from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1966, M.A. in statistics from the University of California, Berkeley in 1971, and Ph.D. in economics from UC Berkeley in 1972.^[5][6] Until 2001, he was the Goldwin Smith Professor of Economics, Ethics, and Public Policy in the Cornell University College of Arts and Sciences. For the 2008–09 academic year, Frank was a visiting professor at the New York UniversityStern School of Business.^[1]

To do this we use the split method.Syntax: string.split('delimiter')Examples:Input: 'Geeks for Geeks'Output: 'Geeks', 'for', 'Geeks'Input: 'Geeks-for-Geeks'Output: 'Geeks', 'for', 'Geeks'The split method is used to split the strings and store them in the list. If a delimiter is not specified or is None, a different splitting algorithm is applied: runs of consecutive whitespace are regarded as a single separator, and the result will contain no empty strings at the start or end if the string has leading or trailing whitespace.Example 1. The built-in method returns a list of the words in the string, using the “delimiter” as the delimiter string. In this program, we will try to convert a given string to a list, where spaces or any other special characters, according to the users choice, are encountered.

Frank has also been a Peace Corps volunteer in rural Nepal, the chief economist for the Civil Aeronautics Board, a fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences (1992 to 1993), and a Professor of American Civilization at École des hautes études en sciences sociales in Paris (2000–01).^[1]

In 2008, Frank received an honorary doctorate in Economics from the University of St. Gallen^[7]

Notable theories[edit]

Positional arms race[edit]

This theory is an analytical examination of the socioeconomic concept of keeping up with the Joneses and conspicuous consumption. His book Choosing the Right Pond discusses the importance of status, and how much people pay for status. Frank argues that the race for status is bad for society as a whole, as there cannot be improvement in overall status available, because every time person A rises above person B, the sum of their status remains the same. The only thing that changes is which person is where in the hierarchy.

He reasons that this race for status explains partly why increases in wealth do not increase well-being, or do not increase it much. According to Frank, if most earnings are spent on pursuing status, there will not be much improvement in intrinsic quality of life.

Winner take all[edit]

In his book The Winner-Take-All Society, he discusses the contemporary trend toward concentration of wealth. He argues that more and more of the current economy and other institutions are moving toward a state where very few winners take very much, while the rest are left with little. He attributes this, in part, to the modern structure of markets and technology.

The strategic role of emotions[edit]

In various economic papers and in the book Passions Within Reason, he discusses the idea that emotions have important roles in decision making and personal interactions, even when they seem to be irrational. For example, the emotions of love give more value to long term romantic commitment. A 'rational' person would dump his partner as soon as he found a better partnership. Emotional attachment gives more long term meaning to the relationship. Put poetically: 'Those sensible about love are incapable of it.' Similarly, anger can be used as a precommitment device. Frank states that envy can be useful in that it enforces more fair distributions. By acting 'irrationally' when treated unfairly, a person can obtain better results in situations which resemble the ultimatum game if their opponent anticipates their emotional response and adjusts their strategy accordingly.

Auto tune garageband ios. Adjust your mic and speakers so there is no feedback.Vocals are corrected to the nearest pitch based on the key and scale of the song, or to a set of melody notes selected on the screen. Normal Retune speed is appropriate for a moderate tempo song, for example a song at 120 bpm with a melody in eighth notes.A funky or fast tempo tune, or a song requiring sixteenth note precision, will likely require a Fast Retune speed. Use the Chromatic scale when you don't know what key or scale a song is in. The Normal Retune speed is a setting of 50 msecs - this gives a natural humanized pitch correction effect. This is the easiest way to correct your voice to the nearest pitch.The Retune speed is the time it takes for Auto-Tune to pitch correct your voice.

Prisoner's dilemma and cooperation[edit]

Frank, Gilovich, and Regan (1993) conducted an experimental study of the prisoner's dilemma. The subjects were students in their first and final years of undergraduate economics, and undergraduates in other disciplines. Subjects were paired, placed in a typical game scenario, then asked to choose either to 'cooperate' or to 'defect'. Pairs of subjects were told that if they both chose 'defect' the payoff for each would be 1. If both cooperated, the payoff for each would be 2. If one defected and the other cooperated, the payoff would be 3 for the defector and 0 for the cooperator. Each subject in a pair made his choice without knowing what the other member of the pair chose.

First year economics students, and students doing disciplines other than economics, overwhelmingly chose to cooperate. But 4th year students in economics tended to not cooperate. Frank et al. concluded, that with 'an eye toward both the social good and the well-being of their own students, economists may wish to stress a broader view of human motivation in their teaching.'

Negative effects of studying economics[edit]

In a highly cited work, Frank showed that the study of economics reduces cooperation in games. The idea is that much of the time cooperation and consideration of other's perspective are irrational in the narrow sense of the word. Thus, learning that cooperation is irrational in some situations is influencing the behavior of the students towards less cooperation, presumably to the negative.^[8]
