How exactly do you plan on modeling how people are going to behave after receiving the aid? That's what these real-life experiments are trying to do in order to inform their models.

It's not like economists don't know how to build models...

I don't know what I would model or how - that's why I was asking for pointers :)

And I in addition to economists, I would be interested in seeing contributions from physicists, computer scientists and machine learning researchers. This paper was super interesting - https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03058, as was this - https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.06376

But would like to see UBI specific papers.
