The power of close relationships and audiences: Interpersonal closeness and payment observability as determinants of voluntary payments
Hofmann, Elisa - 2020
Individual decision-making in Pay-What-You-Want settings is prone to social influence. Es pecially payment observability and the social relationship with other buyers during the payment decision are two important components of social influence. In practical applications of Pay-What-You-Want both...

Behavioural patterns in social networks
Conte, Anna; Di Cagno, Daniela; Sciubba, Emanuela - 2011
In this paper, we focus on the analysis of individual decision making for the formation of social networks, using experimentally generated data. We first analyse the determinants of the individual demand for links under the assumption of agents' static expectations. The results of this exercise...

Assessing mental models via recording the decision deliberations of pairs
Berninghaus, Siegfried K.; Güth, Werner; Klempt, Charlotte - 2013
Two participants have to decide jointly, with the discussions preceding their choice being video/audiotaped. For two tasks, one with and one without strategic interaction, we refer to obvious reasoning styles as mental models. The videotaped discussions are analyzed according to which mental...

The effect of identifiability on the relationship between risk attitudes and other-regarding concerns
Koukoumelis, Anastasios; Levati, M. Vittoria; Ploner, Matteo - 2013
Previous studies have shown that other-regarding concerns are weakened under risky situations. Daily experience also suggests that people care more about an identifiable than about an unidentifiable third person. We report on an experiment designed to explore whether rendering the other...

Wage flexibility in ongoing employment relations: an experiment with a stochastic labor market
Berninghaus, Siegfried K.; Bleich, Sabrina; Güth, Werner - 2007
Facing a stochastic market wage, which is independent of their own hiring policy, employers offer contracts specifying fixed wage, revenue share and employment duration. In ongoing employment relations it depends on the treatment whether fixed wages can be only increased or also decreased. Will...

Applying quadratic scoring rule transparently in multiple choice settings: A note
Artinger, Florian; Exadaktylos, Filippos; Koppel, Hannes; … - 2010
The quadratic scoring rule (QSR) is often used to guarantee an incentive compatible elicitation of subjective probabilities over events. Experimentalists have regularly not been able to ensure that subjects fully comprehend the consequences of their actions on payoffs given the rules of the...

On the independence of observations between experiments
Matthey, Astrid; Regner, Tobias - 2009
attempts to shed some light on the independence of observations between experiments, if they are generated by the same subjects …. We analyze experiments with an allocation decision and find that participation in previous experiments tends to increase … the amount subjects allocate to themselves. Hence, independence between experiments cannot be presumed if subjects …
