| Partial Identification of Guilt Sensitivity | The project is about measuring the extent to which individuals’ decisions are shaped by their desire to avoid feeling guilty of letting down other people. Important complications may arise when trying to detect guilt aversion using stated beliefs. The data of the conducted experiment can be used to estimate the identification region of the sensitivity to guilt parameter without information on players’ beliefs. |
| Partial Identification of Guilt Sensitivity > Part 1 - 2010 | In Januari 2010, a questionnaire regarding an experiment about the allocation of money was administered to the LISS panel. Persons B were asked to send a message to another person A with whom they would matched and then to decide what allocation of money they would choose. |
| Partial Identification of Guilt Sensitivity > Part 2 - 2010 | In February 2010, the second part of the experiment was administered. In this second part, persons A received and read the message that was sent to them by the person B they were matched to. Then, also persons A could decide about the allocation of money. Some of the participants indeed received the payoffs based on the actual decisions that were made. |
