Increasing Altruistic and Cooperative Behaviour with Simple Moral Nudges

Capraro, Valerio - 2019

The conflict between pro-self and pro-social behaviour is at the core of many key problems of our time, as, for example, the reduction of air pollution and the redistribution of scarce resources. For the well-being of our societies, it is thus crucial to find mechanisms to promote pro-social...

Intuition, Deliberation, and Cooperation : Further Meta-Analytic Evidence from 91 Experiments on Pure Cooperation

Rand, David G. - 2019

What is the role of intuitive versus deliberative cognitive processing in human cooperation? The Social Heuristics Hypothesis (SHH) stipulates that (i) intuition favors behaviors that are typically advantageous (i.e. long-run payoff-maximizing), and that for most people cooperation is typically...

Cooperation, Decision Time, and Culture : Online Experiments with American and Indian Participants

Nishi, Akihiro - 2017

Two separate bodies of work have examined whether culture affects cooperation in economic games and whether cooperative or non-cooperative decisions occur more quickly. Here, we connect this work by exploring the relationship between decision time and cooperation in American versus Indian...

Social Environment Shapes the Speed of Cooperation

Nishi, Akihiro - 2016

Are cooperative decisions typically made more quickly or slowly than non-cooperative decisions? While this question has attracted considerable attention in recent years, most research has focused on one-shot interactions. Yet it is repeated interactions that characterize most important...

Cooperation, Fast and Slow : Meta-Analytic Evidence for a Theory of Social Heuristics and Self-Interested Deliberation

Rand, David G. - 2016

Does cooperating require the inhibition of selfish urges? Or does “rational” self-interest constrain cooperative impulses? I investigated the role of intuition and deliberation in cooperation by meta-analyzing 67 studies in which cognitive-processing manipulations were applied to economic...

Strategy-Proof Package Assignment

Erlanson, Albin; Szwagrzak, Karol - Nationalekonomiska Institutionen, Ekonomihögskolan - 2013

We examine the strategy-proof allocation of multiple divisible and indivisible resources; an application is the assignment of packages of tasks, workloads, and compensations among the members of an organization. We find that any allocation mechanism obtained by maximizing a separably concave...

Harnessing Reciprocity to Promote Cooperation and the Provisioning of Public Goods

Rand, David G.; Yoeli, Erez; Hoffman, Moshe - 2015

How can we maximize the common good? This is a central organizing question of public policy design, across political parties and ideologies. The answer typically involves the provisioning of public goods such as fresh air, national defense, and knowledge. Public goods are costly to produce but...

Contracts, Cost Sharing and Consistency

Koster, Maurice - 2009

problem to serve the remaining agents. Consistency requires invariance of cost shares relative to any such reduced cost … sharing problem. Under consistency, the proportional mechanisms uniquely satisfy additivity and positivity of cost shares … average cost sharing. The latter is further characterized by the properties linearity. Under R-consistency, a mechanism is …
