Trust Game Sample Clauses

Trust Game. To measure initial and final levels of trust and trustworthiness as moral social norms we use a modification of the standard protocol of the investment game of Berg, McCabe, and Xxxxxxxx (1995). In this game subjects have the ability to “invest” by sending money to an anonymous experimental partner. The amount of money sent is then multiplied by three before reaching the partner. It is then the partner’s turn to decide how much of the received amount to return to the original investor. By considering the amounts that subjects invest and then return, we can determine to what extent subjects trust others and how trustworthy they are. In our version, subjects played both the role of Sender and that of Receiver. We used the strategy method (for which Receivers have to decide how much to send back to the Sender under all possible amount that they could have received) to prevent players from knowing anything about trust and reciprocity of the fellow subjects, so as to limit the dependency between the specific trust experienced in the first game and the following exchange games. Senders could choose to invest any amount between 0 and 10 Euro while Receivers had to decide how much they would send back for each possible amount that they could receive, ranging from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 30 Euro. The amount sent by Sender (X) is considered a signal of trust because larger amounts X sent translate into larger pies that Receiver has to divide. By sending higher amounts, Sender’s best possible payoff from the game increases, but at the same time her worst-case payoff from the game decreases, relative to the scenario where she sends nothing at all. The amount sent back by Receiver is considered as a measure of trustworthiness or reciprocity. If one of these four decisions (as Sender of Receiver in either Part 1 or Part 4) was randomly drawn to be the one to be paid, the experimenter randomly matched subjects into pairs and computed their profits depending on the actual partners’ choices.
