Income-Comparison Attitudes in the US and the UK : Evidence from Discrete-choice Experiments

Local neighbors as positives, regional neighbors as negatives : competing channels in the relationship between others' income, health, and happiness

We develop a theoretical framework that considers four distinct explanatory channels through which neighbors' income could affect utility: public goods, cost of living, expectations of future income, and the direct effect (relative income hypothesis (RIH) and altruism). The relationship is...

Well-being inequality and reference groups : an agenda for new research
Praag, Bernard M. S. van - 2010
It is argued that the concept of well-being inequality cannot be properly defined without taking the referencing process into account. The reference effect depends on how frequently individuals compare with others and on the degree of social transparency in society. In this paper we employ the...
