Use of data on planned contributions and stated beliefs in the measurement of social preferences
Conte, Anna; Levati, M. Vittoria - Wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2011
In a series of one-shot linear public goods game, we ask subjects to report their contributions, their contribution plans for the next period, and their first-order beliefs about their present and future partner. We estimate subjects' preferences from plans data by a finite mixture approach and...

Social Preferences, Beliefs, and the Dynamics of Free Riding in Public Good Experiments
Fischbacher, Urs; Gaechter, Simon - Centre for Decision Research and Experimental Economics … - 2009
One lingering puzzle is why voluntary contributions to public goods decline over time in experimental and real-world settings. We show that the decline of cooperation is driven by individual preferences for imperfect conditional cooperation. Many people’s desire to contribute less than others,...

HETEROGENEOUS SOCIAL PREFERENCES AND THE DYNAMICS OF FREE RIDING IN PUBLIC GOOD EXPERIMENTS
FISCHBACHER, URS; GAECHTER, SIMON - Centre for Decision Research and Experimental Economics … - 2008
We provide a direct test of the role of social preferences and beliefs in voluntary cooperation and its decline. We elicit individuals’ cooperation preference in one experiment and use them – as well as subjects’ elicited beliefs – to make predictions about contributions to a public good...

Social Preferences, Beliefs, and the Dynamics of Free Riding in Public Good Experiments
Fischbacher, Urs; Gaechter, Simon - CESifo - 2008
We provide a test of the role of social preferences and beliefs in voluntary cooperation and its decline. We elicit individuals’ cooperation preferences in one experiment and use them – as well as subjects’ elicited beliefs – to explain contributions to a public good played repeatedly....

Voluntary contributions with imperfect information: An experimental study
Fiore, Annamaria; Levati, M. Vittoria; Morone, Andrea - Max-Planck-Institut für Ökonomik, Max-Planck-Gesellschaft - 2006
We use a two-person linear voluntary contribution mechanism with stochastic marginal benefits from the public good to examine the effect of imperfect information on contributions levels. To assess prior risk attitudes, individual valuations of several risky prospects are elicited via a...
