Unravelling conditional cooperation : reciprocity, inequity aversion, and anchoring in public goods provision
Cappelletti, Dominique; Güth, Werner; Ploner, Matteo - 2011
cooperation. We try to assess the relative importance of three motives - namely reciprocity, inequity aversion, and anchoring - in … a non-linear voluntary contribution experiment. We find that, for those conditionally cooperating, both reciprocity and … reciprocity. In contrast, anchoring plays only a marginal role. Compared to what previously found in linear voluntary contribution …

Community projects: An experimental analysis of a fair implementation process
Cicognani, Simona; D'Ambrosio, Anna; Güth, Werner; … - 2012
We define and experimentally test a public provision mechanism that meets three basic ethical requirements and allows community members to influence, via monetary bids, which of several projects is implemented. For each project, participants are assigned personal values, which can be positive or...

Procedurally fair collective provision : its requirements and experimental functionality
Güth, Werner; Kliemt, Hartmut; Koukoumelis, Anastasios; … - 2013
This paper derives and justifies a procedurally fair bidding mechanism and reviews experiments that apply the mechanism to public projects provision. In the experiments, not all parties benefit from provision, and the projects ́costs can be negative. The experimental results indicate that the...

Providing negative cost public projects under a fair mechanism : an experimental analysis
Güth, Werner; Koukoumelis, Anastasios; Levati, M. Vittoria - 2013
This paper experimentally examines a procedurally fair provision mechanism allowing members of a small community to determine, via their bids, which of four alternative public projects to implement. Previous experiments with positive cost projects have demonstrated that the mechanism is...

Intentions and consequences : an experimental investigation of trust and reciprocity determinants
Güth, Werner; Mugera, Harriet; Musau, Andrew; Ploner, … - 2012
We experimentally manipulate the efficiency of trust and reciprocity in a modified Investment Game. The aim of our … manipulation is to test whether reciprocity is mainly affected by payoff consequences of trust or by intentions underlying it. We … efficiency of trust as well as by efficiency of reciprocity. However, trustors do not fully exploit the high efficiency gains …
