Contributions made in public in front of the solicitor are 25% higher thancontributions made in private. Giving subjects a small gift before requesting a contribution increases the likelihood of a positivecontribution. At the same time, the conditional contribution decreases. The total effect of giving a gift is positive but small, andtaking the cost of the gift into account, it is far from profitable. When the subjects are told that the typical contribution of others is$2 (a small contribution), the probability of a contribution increases and the conditional contribution decreases, compared withproviding no reference information. Providing a high reference level ($10) increases the conditional contributions. Overall, the totaleffects have the expected signs, although the magnitudes are smaller than what one might have expected based on existing evidencefrom laboratory experiments. 2021-05-01T22:09:52Z 2021-05-01T22:09:52Z 2008 Artículo https://repositorio.catie.ac.cr/handle/11554/10756 en Discussion paper series (EfD); info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess application/pdf Environment for Development |
