More than outcomes: A cognitive dissonance-based explanation of other-regarding behavior
Matthey, Astrid; Regner, Tobias - 2011
Recent research has cast some doubt on the general validity of outcome-based models of social preferences. We develop a model based on cognitive dissonance that focuses on the importance of self-image. An experiment (a dictator game variant) tests the model. First, we find that subjects whose...
