whether behavior in public goods games is affected by experience (i.e., previous participation in social dilemma …-type experiments) and history (i.e., participation in experiments of a different class than the social dilemma). We have three main … experience. Second, a mixture model reveals that the proportion of unconditional cooperators decreases with experience, while …

Use of data on planned contributions and stated beliefs in the measurement of social preferences

Conte, Anna; Levati, M. Vittoria - 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 infinite mixture approach...

Voting on the threat of exclusion in a public goods experiment

Dannenberg, Astrid; Haita-Falah, Corina; Zitzelsberger, … - 2019

Ostracism is practiced by virtually all societies around the world as a means of enforcing cooperation and excluding members who show anti-social behaviors or attitudes. In this paper, we use a public goods experiment to study whether groups choose to implement an institution that allows for the...

Securely Implementable Social Choice Functions in Divisible and Non-Excludable Public Good Economies with Quasi-Linear Utility Functions

Nishizaki, Katsuhiko - 2016

This paper studies the possibility of secure implementation (Saijo, T., T. Sjöström, and T. Yamato (2007) "Secure Implementation," Theoretical Economics 2, pp. 203-229) in divisible and non-excludable public good economies with quasi-linear utility functions. Although Saijo, Sjöström, and...

Between-group conflict and other-regarding preferences in nested social dilemmas

Böhm, Robert; Bornstein, Gary; Köppel, Hannes - 2014

We investigate experimentally the underlying motivations and individual differences with regard to the participation in between-group conflict in nested social dilemmas. In our nested social dilemmas, the collective is divided into two groups, and individuals allocate tokens between a private, a...

Social preferences, beliefs and the dynamics of free riding in public good experiments

Fischbacher, Urs; Gächter, Simon - 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,...

Social preferences, beliefs, and the dynamics of free riding in public good experiments

Fischbacher, Urs; Gächter, Simon - 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. We find...
