We provide a framework to decompose preferences into a notion of distributive justice and a selfishness part and to recover individual notions of distributive justice from data collected in appropriately designed experiments. "Dictator games" with varying transfer rates used in Andreoni and...

This paper presents a model of real effort provision in conjunction with social preference theory to predict how individuals exert effort to replace an exogenously determined "state of the world" with a preferred social outcome. Binary dictator games and real effort tasks are used to examine...
