We report results from a sender-receiver deception game, which tests whether an individual's decision to deceive is … order to obtain a higher payoff. A sender is positively biased if he thinks that he is higher in the deception distribution … information about the deception of his peers. The experimental data confirm this. We conclude that concern for relative standing …

We study experimentally the protection of property in five widely distinct countries - Austria, Mexico, Mongolia, South Korea and the United States. Our main results are that the security of property varies with experimental institutions, and that our subject pools exhibit significantly...
