Leadership and conditional cooperation in public good games : what difference does the game make?
Cartwright, Edward; Lovett, Denise - 2013
We investigate experimentally whether the extent of conditional cooperation in public good games depends on the marginal return to the public good and type of game. The marginal return is varied from 0.2 to 0.4 to 0.8. The "standard" game, in which three players contribute before a follower, is...

Donations to increase productivity in public good production : experimental evidence
Struwe, Natalie; Blanco, Esther; Walker, James - 2023 - This version: March 2023
This research is inspired by in-kind donations that have the capacity to increase the marginal benefit (productivity) in provision of public goods, for example by providing critical infrastructure that increases the productivity of resources utilized by local public good providers. We provide...

Can intentions spoil the kindness of a gift? : an experimental study
Strassmair, Christina - 2009
Consider a situation where person A undertakes acostly action that benefits person B. This behavior seems altruistic. However, if A expects a reward in return from B, then A's action may be motivated by expected rewards rather than by pure altruism. The question we address in this experimental...

Classical and belief-based gift exchange models : theory and evidence
Dhami, Sanjit S.; Wei, Mengxing; Al-Nowaihi, Ali - 2021
We derive, compare, and test the predictions of three models of gift exchange: Classical (CGE); Augmented (AGE) based on unexpected wage surprises and first order beliefs; and Belief-based (BGE) that uses second order beliefs to formally model guilt-aversion. Motivated by Akerlof (1982), we also...
