Abstract
We study comparative statics in symmetric contests. No general conclusions
can be drawn about the effects of varying the number of participants or the
value of the prize. Replicating a contest, however, always increases the r
ate of prize dissipation. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science BN. All rights reserved
