摘要

自 2021 年以来，日本越来越多的电影综合公司取消了长期存在的性别价格歧视，将针对女性的折扣改为针对所有顾客的折扣。本研究探讨了这种折扣变化对电影需求的影响。通过使用按性别划分的影院访问数据和差异策略，我发现男性和女性的电影需求都有所增加，这表明电影需求在性别间是相互依存的。利润分析表明，电影院的平均利润与折扣调整前保持在同一水平。最后，将差分估计结果与随机效用模型相结合，发现联合电影消费提高了配对顾客的观影效用。

The effects of removing gender-based price discrimination on movie demand: Estimates using smartphone location data

Since 2021, an increasing number of movie complex firms in Japan have eliminated long-standing gender-based price discrimination by replacing discounts for only women with discounts for all customers. This study examines the impact of this discount change on movie demand. Using theater-level visit data by gender and a difference-in-differences strategy, I find increased movie demand for both males and females, indicating inter-gender interdependence of movie demand. A profit analysis shows that the average movie theater profit remains at the same level as that before the discount adjustment. Lastly, combining the difference-in-differences estimates with a random utility model reveals that joint movie consumption enhances paired customers' movie-watching utility.

期刊介绍： The IJIO is an international venture that aims at full coverage of theoretical and empirical questions in industrial organization. This includes classic questions of strategic behavior and market structure. The journal also seeks to publish articles dealing with technological change, internal organization of firms, regulation, antitrust and productivity analysis. We recognize the need to allow for diversity of perspectives and research styles in industrial organization and we encourage submissions in theoretical work, empirical work, and case studies. The journal will also occasionally publish symposia on topical issues.
