Revealed notions of distributive justice II : experimental evidence

Becker, Nicole; Häger, Kirsten; Heufer, Jan - 2013

We report the results of a combination of a dictator experiment with either a “social planner” or a “veil of ignorance …” experiment. The experimental design and the analysis of the data are based on the theoretical framework proposed in the companion … Agreement and Symmetry axioms proposed in BHH; we find that for 80% of participants the evidence is very strong. The experiment …

Revealed notions of distributive justice I : theory

Becker, Nicole; Häger, Kirsten; Heufer, Jan - 2013

We provide a framework to decompose preferences into a notion of distributive justice and a selfishness part and to recover individual notions of distributive justice from data collected in appropriately designed experiments. “Dictator games” with varying transfer rates used in Andreoni and...

Revealed Social Preferences

Dolgopolov, Arthur - 2019

We use a revealed preference approach to develop tests for the observed behavior to be consistent with theories of social preferences. In particular, we provide nonparametric criteria for the observed set of choices to be generated by inequality averse preferences and increasing benevolence...

Cardinal revealed preference, price-dependent utility, and consistent binary choice

Aguiar, Victor H.; Serrano, Roberto - 2018 - This version: January 2018

We present a new notion of cardinal revealed preference that exploits the expenditure information in classical consumer theory environments with finite data. We propose a new behavioral axiom, Acyclic Enticement (AE), that requires the acyclicity of the cardinal revealed-preference relation. AE...

The Revealed Preference Theory of Stable and Extremal Stable Matchings

Echenique, Federico; Lee, SangMok; Shum, Matthew; … - 2011

We investigate the testable implications of the theory of stable matchings. We provide a characterization of the data that are rationalizable as a stable matching when agents' preferences are unobserved. The characterization is a simple nonparametric test for stability, in the tradition of...

Behavioral characterizations of naivete for time-inconsistent preferences

Ahn, David S.; Iijima, Ryota; Le Yaouanq, Yves; Sarver, Todd - 2018 - Current draft: November 21, 2018

We propose nonparametric definitions of absolute and comparative naivete. These definitions leverage ex-ante choice of menu to identify predictions of future behavior and ex-post (random) choices from menus to identify actual behavior. The main advantage of our definitions is their independence...

Delay aversion

Benoît, Jean-Pierre; Ok, Efe A. - In: Theoretical economics : TE ; an open access journal in … 2 (2007) 1, pp. 71-113

We address the following question: When can one person properly be said to be more delay averse than another? In reply, several (nested) comparison methods are developed. These methods yield a theory of delay aversion which parallels that of risk aversion. The applied strength of this theory is...
