Hedegaard, Morten; Kerschbamer, Rudolf; Müller, Daniel; … - 2019
We use a large and heterogeneous sample of the Danish population to investigate the importance of distributional preferences for behavior in a public good game and a trust game. We find robust evidence for the significant explanatory power of distributional preferences. In fact, compared to...

Gender and cooperative preferences on five continents
Furtner, Nadja C.; Kocher, Martin; Martinsson, Peter; … - 2016
Evidence of gender differences in cooperation in social dilemmas is inconclusive. This paper experimentally elicits unconditional contributions, a contribution vector (cooperative preferences), and beliefs about the level of others' contributions in variants of the public goods game. We show...

Leadership in a public goods : experiment with permanent and temporary members
Angelova, Vera; Güth, Werner; Kocher, Martin - 2019
We experimentally analyze leading by example in a public goods game with two permanent and two temporary group members. Our results show that leadership when permanent and temporary members interact leads to lower contributions than interaction without leadership.

The field experiment is a … true natural field experiment as subjects do not know that they are exposed to an experimental variation. We can show that … subjects' behavior in the classic lab public good experiment correlates with their behavior in the structurally comparable …

Dufwenberg, Martin (contributor);  … - 2006
Psychological game theory can provide a rational choice explanation of framing effects; frames influence beliefs, and beliefs influence motivations. We explain this point theoretically, and explore its empirical relevance experimentally. In a 2×2-factorial framing design of one-shot public good...
