- Abstract
- Most research on arbitrator decision-making has used a model that assumes there is only one disputed issue. This study shows this model is not appropriate in multi-issue disputes under a final-offer by package law. Using data from Wisconsin, I find arbitrators do give substantial weight to non-wage issues in multi-issue disputes. However, the written awards of arbitrators substantially understate the weight given to non-wage issues in the final offer selection.
