Columbus, Simon; Kasper, Matthias; Feld, Lars P.; … - 2023
This study investigates the effects of unfair enforcement of institutional rules on public good contributions, personal and social norms, and trust. In a preregistered online experiment (n = 1,038), we find that biased institutions reduce rule compliance compared to fair institutions. However,...

Moral entitlements and aspiration formation in asymmetric bargaining : experimental evidence from Germany and China
Hennig-Schmidt, Heike; Walkowitz, Gari - In: Games 8 (2017) 4, pp. 1-25
Using a unique experimental data set, we investigate how asymmetric legal rights shape bargainers’ aspiration levels through moral entitlements derived from equity norms and number prominence. Aspiration formation is typically hard to observe in real life. Our study involves 15 negotiations...

Improving Human Deception Detection Using Algorithmic Feedback
Serra-Garcia, Marta; Gneezy, Uri - 2023
Can algorithms help people detect deception in high-stakes strategic interactions? Participants watching the pre-play communication of contestants in the TV show Golden Balls display a limited ability to predict contestants' behavior, while algorithms do significantly better. We provide...

Taxation with mobile high-income agents : experimental evidence on tax compliance and equity perceptions
Casal, Sandro; Grimm, Veronika; Schächtele, Simeon - In: Games 10 (2019) 4/42, pp. 1-29
In a laboratory experiment on tax compliance, we model a situation in which high-income taxpayers can leave a tax system that finances a public good. We compare low-income taxpayers' compliance decisions and equity perceptions across treatments in which they are informed or not informed about...
