We experimentally study how redistribution choices are affected by positive and negative information regarding the behaviour of a previous participant in a dictator game with a taking option. We use the strategy method to identify behavioural ‘types', and thus distinguish ‘conformists' from...

We use a ‘multi-player dictator game' (MDG) with ‘social information' about the contribution decision about a previous dictator to examine whether average contributions as well as the behavioural strategy adopted are affected by the first amount presented (the ‘anchor') using a sequential...
