Beware of broken windows! First impressions in public-good experiments
Beckenkamp, Martin; Engel, Christoph; Glöckner, Andreas; … - 2009
Broken Windows: the metaphor has changed New York and Los Angeles. Yet it is far from undisputed whether the broken windows policy was causal for reducing crime. In a series of lab experiments we show that first impressions are indeed causal for cooperativeness in three different institutional...
