Voting on punishment systems within a heterogeneous group
Noussair, Charles N.; Tan, Fangfang - 2009
a punishment regime, in which certain individuals are permitted, but not required, to have punishment directed toward … them. The punishment system can condition on type and contribution history. The results indicate that the most effective … regime, in terms of contributions and earnings, is one that allows punishment of low contributors only, regardless of …

Social Framing Effects in Leadership: Preferences or Beliefs?
Cartwright, Edward; Drouvelis, Michalis - 2020
We experimentally study the impact of framing effects in a repeated sequential social dilemma game. Our between-subjects design consists of two group level ("Wall Street" vs. "Community") and two individual level ("First (Second) Movers" vs. "Leaders (Followers)") frames. We find that average...

Tipping versus Cooperating to Supply a Public Good
Barrett, Scott; Dannenberg, Astrid - 2015
In some important multi-player situations, such as efforts to supply a global public good, players can choose the game they want to play. In this paper we conduct an experimental test of the decision to choose between a tipping game, in which every player wants to contribute to the public good...

Asymmetric obligations
Riedel, Nadine; Schildberg-Hörisch, Hannah - 2011
We use a laboratory experiment to investigate the behavioral effects of obligations that are not backed by binding … and asymmetric minimum contribution levels (obligations) in a repeated public goods experiment. The results provide …

The value of non-binding announcements in public goods experiments : some theory and experimental evidence
Berlemann, Michael; Dittrich, Marcus; Markwardt, Gunther - 2004
In this paper we present three simple theoretical models to explain the influence of the possibility to make non-binding announcements on investment behaviour in public goods settings. Our models build on the idea that voluntary contributions to the supply of a public good might be motivated by...

The Team Allocator Game : Allocation Power in Public Goods Games
Karakostas, Alexandros; Matzat, Dominik; Riewe, Gerhard; … - 2021
We analyze linear, weakest-link and best-shot public goods games in which a distinguished team member, the team allocator, has property rights over the benefits from the public good and can distribute them among team members. These team allocator games are intended to capture natural asymmetries...
