Disclosure Examples
The AEA believes that it is in the authors' best interest to disclose potential conflicts of interest.Simple conflict of interest statement
Disclosure is author-, and paper-specific; a specific relationship may be relevant for one of an author’s papers, but not for another.
In cases of uncertainty regarding whether to disclose a particular relationship, a guiding principle should be the answer to the question: "Would I or my institution or a reasonable person be embarrassed if I had not disclosed this relationship and it was subsequently discovered by a journalist, colleague or university administrator?" If the answer to this question is "yes," the relationship should be disclosed.
In the following, we provide some examples to help clarify the policy.
Some of these examples draw on the disclosure policy of the NBER, which is similar to the AEA’s. We encourage authors to visit the NBER website for a list of additional examples.
