Abstract

Experimental evidence suggests that individuals' choices depart systematically from self-interest behavior. It reports the results of a simple experimental dictator game played by students from different departments at Universidad Nacional de La Plata to contrast these model predictions with more sophisticated representations of social preferences. The results show that individuals incorporate fairness considerations in their choices. Particularly, in the considered framework, fairness seems to be linked with equality.
