The first is a simple … principal-agent experiment that shows that consistency is valued by others and that this value is anticipated. The second … experiment underlines the crucial role of early commitment for consistency preferences. Finally we show how preferences for …

To investigate the external validity of laboratory results, we combine a public good experiment with three treatments … in a field experiment. One treatment offers the opportunity to free-ride, the other two are placebo treatments. We … the two placebo treatments. We conclude that we can use lab experiments to learn about behavior in situations that share …
