Dickinson, David L.; Masclet, David - 2018
Anti-social behaviours are costly to organizations, and the ability to identify predictors of such behaviours can be valuable. In this paper, we used a within-subjects laboratory design to study choices in the well-known (hypothetical) Trolley problem as well as in a real payoff money-burning...

An Experimental Investigation of Risk Sharing and Adverse Selection
Tausch, Franziska; Potters, Jan; Riedl, Arno - 2013
