我们使用个别钢铁厂的数据来研究监管机构执行空气污染法规与企业合规决定之间的关系。我们发现决策之间的预期交互作用：在工厂层面，更多的执行会导致更多的合规性，而更多的合规性会导致更少的执行。我们还测试了在保持工厂特征不变的情况下，公司特征的差异是否会影响工厂层面的合规或执法决策，并发现它们似乎对执法的影响大于对合规的影响。(C)1996年学术出版社。
We use data on individual steel plants to study the relationship between regulators' enforcement of air pollution regulations and firms' compliance decisions. We find the expected interactions between the decisions: at the plant level, greater enforcement leads to greater compliance, while greater compliance leads to less enforcement. We also test whether differences in firms' characteristics affect either compliance or enforcement decisions at the plant level, holding plant characteristics constant, and find that they seem to matter more for enforcement than for compliance.
