Does the extent of cheating depend on a proper reference point? We use a real effort task that implements a two (gain versus loss frame) times two (monitored performance versus unmonitored performance) between-subjects design to examine whether cheating is reference-dependent. Our experimental...

increasing as the bad outcome becomes less likely, and hence the greater the loss that can be avoided by lying. We demonstrate … robust support for this role of loss aversion on lying by reanalyzing the results from the extant literature covering 74 … studies and 363 treatments, and from two new experiments that vary the outcome probabilities and examine lying for personal …

Many experimental studies and surveys have shown that women consistently display more risk-averse behavior than men when confronted with decisions involving risk. These differences in risk preferences, when combined with gender differences in other behavioral traits, such as fondness for...

This paper theoretically and experimentally studies the role of two behavioral biases in all-pay auctions for charity. The theory is developed to predict the effect of loss aversion in the first-price all-pay auction and sunk cost sensitivity in the war of attrition. Using controlled laboratory...
