We show that choices in competitive behavior may entail a gender wage gap. In our experi ments, employees first choose … pie size the employee has generated, the remuneration scheme chosen, and the employee's gender. Employers then decide how … the pie will be split, as in a dictator game. Whereas employers do not discriminate by gender when tournaments are chosen …

One key problem regarding the external validity of laboratory experiments is their duration: while economic interactions out in the field are often lengthy processes, typical lab experiments only last for an hour or two. To address this problem for the case of both symmetric and asymmetric...
