Project Description

View help for Summary
We utilize graphical representations of Dictator Games which generate rich individual-
level data. Our baseline experiment employs budget sets over feasible
payoff-
pairs. We test these data for consistency with utility maximization, and we
recover the underlying preferences for giving (trade-offs between own payoffs and
the payoffs of others). Two further experiments augment the analysis. An extensive
elaboration employs three-person budget sets to distinguish preferences for giving
from social preferences (trade-offs between the payoffs of others). And an intensive
elaboration employs step-shaped sets to distinguish between behaviors that
are compatible with well-behaved preferences and those compatible only with not
well-behaved cases. (JEL C72, D64)
