BOUMAN, LOES. « COLLECTIVE ACTION SUCCESS IN STEP-LEVEL PUBLIC GOODS GAMES Experimental Studies on the Role of Social Value Orientation and Information on Efficacy Heterogeneity ». Doctoral thesis, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, 2021. http://hdl.handle.net/10281/314001.
Texte intégralThis dissertation is concerned with understanding collective action success and what factors foster or hamper the endeavour. Specifically, we focus on collective action that is aimed at the production of public goods and how groups overcome social dilemmas that are inherent to that. A social dilemma can be defined as a situation where individual and collective rationality are at odds. There two broad categories of social dilemmas. The first category compiles cooperation problems, were each individual has the temptation to abstain from making contributions to public good production and aim for consumption of the good provided by others, that is, by means of free-riding. However, if all individuals act on their own interests, the public good is not produced. How individuals value their own and others’ outcomes from cooperation is conceptualized as their Social Value Orientation (SVO). Research demonstrates that SVO is a valid predictor of cooperative behavior across various empirical settings. However, once individuals interact repeatedly, the relative strength and stability of the SVO – behavior link are less clear cut. In this dissertation SVO is one of the key explanans that are expected to play a role in collective action success. The second category compiles coordination problems. In coordination problems, individuals find themselves in situations in which interests coincide, however, there are multiple choice options to reach that outcome and this can instigate a coordination problem. Previous research has shown that heterogeneity among cooperators can help in overcoming coordination problems. Group members typically differ in the impact their investments have on the likelihood of public good production. The impact an individual’s behavior has on outcomes is generally referred to as their efficacy. Research has established a significant positive relationship between heterogeneity in efficacy and successful collective action. However, this relationship requires that individuals involved have information about each other’s efficacy. But it yet remains an open question how the degree of information of efficacy heterogeneity influences collective action success. The degree of information of efficacy heterogeneity constitute the second key explanantia of this dissertation. The two main explanans - SVO and information on efficacy heterogeneity - in this dissertation focus on how on individual characteristics, group characteristics and the structure of the situation influence collective action success. Both elements are closely related to the two social dilemmas (cooperation and coordination problems) inherent to collective action Bringing both questions together constitute an overacting question for the dissertation: How do social preferences and information on efficacy heterogeneity influence collective action success ? A well-known model naturally reflecting public goods problems is the Step-Level Public Good design (SPG). we adopt the design in the dissertation and use it as theoretical framework to derive hypotheses to answer this research question. We test hypotheses in laboratory experiments and analyse data in a multilevel framework.

Texte intégralThe present dissertation studies three social determinants of economic decisions: Social Identity, Social Image, and Social preferences. The first chapter reports on an experiment testing the effect of upward social mobility on interpersonal trust. Individuals are characterized both by a natural group identity and by a status awarded by means of relative performance in a task in which natural identities strongly predict performance. Upward mobility is characterized by the access to the high status of individuals belonging to the natural group associated with a lower expected performance. We find that socially mobile individuals trust less than those who are not socially mobile, both when the trustee belongs to the same natural group or to the other natural group. In contrast, upward mobility does not affect trustworthiness. We find no evidence that interacting with an upwardly mobile individual impacts trust or trustworthiness. In the second chapter, we test whether individuals internalize the effects of their behavior on the social image of their group. In our experiment, we recruit pairs of real-life friends and study whether misreporting decreases when it may have negative spillovers on the image of the friend. We find that participants hurt their friends' social image by misreporting: external observers update their beliefs and rightfully expect that a participant whose friend misreported is likely to misreport himself. However, participants misreport as often when their behavior can hurt the friend's image as when it cannot, even though hurting their friends' image reduces their own monetary gains. Our interpretation is that they underestimate the impact of their behavior on external observers' beliefs about their friends. Our results show that, even in our case where group membership is salient, groups might have difficulties building a good image. The good news is that external observers may use image spillovers to update their beliefs and interact with members of groups more efficiently. In the third chapter, we experimentally test whether the salience of counter-factual payoffs impacts generosity. Participants first perform a real-effort task for a fixed wage, and then play a dictator game. Between conditions, we vary the level and the timing of the revelation of the wage. In some conditions, participants know the wage before the real effort task, and are not informed of the other potential levels. In some other conditions, they are informed of the distribution of the wages before the real effort task, but the actual wage is only revealed afterward. Our hypothesis is that participants in the latter conditions evaluate their actual wage relative to the other potential levels, which in turns impact their transfers in the subsequent dictator game. The results support this hypothesis: participants who get a the high wage tend to transfer more when they are informed of the other potential levels than when they are not. Symmetrically, participants who get the low wage tend to transfer less when they are informed of the other potential levels than when they are not

Texte intégralThe notion of need often characterizes the strict minimum amount of food and shelter to survive. Needs have however recurrently been described as essentially relative and context-driven. Indeed, cultural and social incentives tend to provide powerful motivations for individuals to engage in choices sometimes detrimental to their short- or long-term fitness. These choices reveal certain needs which are beyond mere sustenance. My thesis aims at better understanding these decisions by including cultural and social components to a standard theory of consumption. By doing so, it contributes to bridge the gap between two important branches of the literature: demand analysis and behavioral/social economics. The different chapters adress questions such as: Why do malnourished people spend a significant portion of their budget on conspicuous goods (first chapter)? Why do people of different social groups choose to consume different types of goods, given similar prices, income and demographics (second chapter)? Do social interactions contribute to the persistence of localized tastes (third chapter)? And does market integration contribute to taste convergence (fourth chapter)? These topics require to take into account the social meaning of consumption choices, aside from income, prices and functionality. In other words, they require to consider consumption as a language

Texte intégralLos tres capítulos de esta tesis investigan la validez externa de los juegos de preferencias sociales. El Capítulo 1 revela la naturaleza dependiente del contexto del comportamiento social humano y muestra que es posible hacer que los juegos de laboratorio sean mucho más predictivos del comportamiento de campo si se traen los elementos contextuales correctos del campo al laboratorio. El capítulo 2 muestra que los juegos de preferencias sociales alcanzan correlaciones moderadas con una colección de comportamientos pro-sociales diarios cuando estos comportamientos son observados y agregados a lo largo de un período de tiempo más largo. Esto sugiere que los juegos libres de contexto capturan ciertos aspectos fundamentales de la pro-socialidad en la vida diaria y que la investigación futura sobre la validez externa de estos juegos debería prestar más atención al comportamiento social durante períodos más prolongados. El Capítulo 3 presenta una investigación sistemática de la validez externa de los juegos de preferencias sociales en el lugar de trabajo, comparando el comportamiento en los juegos con comportamientos organizacionales en un grupo de hoteles. Los resultados muestran que los juegos de preferencia social tienen un bajo poder predictivo en relación al comportamiento organizacional.
Letsou, Christina. « Preferences for Randomization in Social Choice : ». Thesis, Boston College, 2020. http://hdl.handle.net/2345/bc-ir:108719.
Texte intégralThis dissertation consists of three chapters analyzing preferences for randomization in social choice problems. The first two chapters are related and in the fields of distributive justice and social choice. They concern allocation of an indivisible good in social choice problems where efficiency is at odds with equality. The last chapter addresses a social choice problem from an individual's perspective using decision theoretical analysis. In this dissertation I demonstrate why randomization may be an attractive policy in social choice problems and demonstrate how individuals may have preferences over the precise method of randomization. The first chapter is titled "Live and Let Die." This paper discusses how to allocate an indivisible good by social lottery when agents have asymmetric claims. Intuition suggests that there may exist agents who should receive zero probability in the optimal social lottery. In such a case, I say that these agents have weak claims to the good. This paper uses a running example of allocating an indivisible medical treatment to individuals with different survival rates and reactions to the treatment in order to provide conditions for consistency of weak claims. As such, I develop two related assumptions on a social planner's preferences over lotteries. The first -- survival rate scaling -- states that if an individual has a weak claim, then his claim is also weak when survival rates increase proportionally. The second -- independence of weak claims -- states that if an individual has a weak claim, then his removal does not affect others' probabilities of receiving the treatment. These assumptions imply that a compatible social welfare function must exhibit constant elasticity of substitution, which results in potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries. The second chapter is titled "Why is Six Afraid of Seven? Bringing the "Numbers" to Economics." This chapter discusses the numbers problem: the question of if the numbers of people involved should be used to determine whether to help certain people or to help certain other people. I discuss the main solutions that have been proposed: flipping a coin, saving the greater number, and proportionally weighted lotteries. Using the economic tools of social choice, I then show how the model of the previous chapter, "Live and Let Die," can be extended to address numbers problems and compare the implications of prominent social welfare functions for numbers problems. I argue that potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries can assuage the main concerns discussed in the literature and I show that both the Nash product social welfare function as well as constant elasticity of substitution (CES) social welfare functions are compatible with this solution. Finally, I discuss a related problem known as "probability cases," in which individuals differ in survival chances rather than numbers of individuals at risk. When the model is extended to allow for both asymmetries in survival chances and numbers of individuals in groups, CES results in potentially-degenerate weighted lotteries whereas Nash product does not. The third chapter is titled "All Probabilities are Equal, but Some Probabilities are More Equal than Others," which is joint work with Professor Uzi Segal of the Economics Department at Boston College and Professor Shlomo Naeh of the Departments of Talmud and Jewish Thought at The Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In this chapter we compare preferences for different procedures of selecting people randomly. A common procedure for selecting people is to have them draw balls from an urn in turn. Modern and ancient stories (for example, by Graham Greene and the Talmud) suggest that such a lottery may not be viewed by the individuals as "fair.'' In this paper, we compare this procedure with several alternatives. These procedures give all individuals equal chance of being selected, but have different structures. We analyze these procedures as multi-stage lotteries. In line with previous literature, our analysis is based on the observation that multi-stage lotteries are not considered indifferent to their probabilistic one-stage representations. As such, we use a non-expected utility model to understand the preferences of risk-averse individuals over these procedures and show that they may be not indifferent between them

Texte intégralEl objetivo principal de la Teoría de Elección Social es analizar este tipo de problemas a través del estudio de propiedades normativas de diferentes funciones de elección social.
En capitulo 2 y 3 se estudia funciones de elección social cuando individuos dividen las alternativas en dos clases de indiferencias. En capitulo 4 se analiza con la ayuda de experimento si algunas personas tienen preferencias para decir la verdad sobre su información privada. Finalmente, en capitulo 5 se investiga los incentivos de formar coaliciones en situaciones de búsqueda de renta.
If a group of individuals has to decide upon the selection of some feasible alternatives and individual preferences on the set of alternatives are not aligned, then the institutional problem of how preferences should be aggregated arises. It is the main objective of Social Choice Theory to address this question by studying normative properties of different aggregation rules.
In chapter 2 and 3 we analyze social choice function if individuals have dichotomous preferences on the set of alternatives. In chapter, we investigate by of an experiment if some individuals have preferences for truth-telling. And finally, in chapter 5 we study individual incentives to form coalitions in a simple rent-seeking environment.

Texte intégralEl objetivo de esta tesis es desarrollar nuevos y diversos métodos para modelar las preferencias de los usuarios en las Redes Sociales Online. Los métodos propuestos tienen como finalidad ser aplicados en áreas de investigación como la Personalización o Recomendación de ítems y la Detección de Grupos de Usuarios con gustos similares. Dichos métodos pueden ser agrupados en dos tipos: i) métodos basados en técnicas de análisis de texto (Parte I, Capítulos del 3 al 5) y ii) métodos basados en teoría de grafos (Parte II, Capítulos 6 y 7). Con los métodos planteados en la Parte I es posible determinar el nivel de interés de los usuarios en temas que son compartidos en plataformas de microblogging. Hemos tomado como caso de estudio la participación digital de tweeters en la política. Los métodos propuestos en la Parte II buscan definir un rol para los usuarios en Redes Sociales, ya sea como creadores o generadores de contenido y distribuidores o consumidores de contenido. Hemos planteado un método donde usuarios con intereses similares pero con distinto rol, son agrupados en una misma comunidad de forma que nuevo contenido se propague más rápidamente.
The objective of this thesis is to develop new and diverse methods to model the preferences of the users in the Online Social Networks. The proposed methods are intended to be applied in areas of research such as Personalization or Recommendation of items and the detection of groups of users with similar tastes. These methods can be grouped into two types: i) methods based on text analysis techniques (Chapters 3 to 5) and ii) methods based on graph theory (Chapters 6 and 7). With the methods proposed in i) it is possible to determine the level of interest of users on topics that are shared on microblogging platforms. We have taken as a case study the digital participation of tweeters in politics. The methods proposed in ii) seek to define a role for users in social networks, whether as creators or content generators and distributors or content consumers. We have proposed a method where users with similar interests but with different roles, are grouped in the same community so that new content spreads more quickly.

Texte intégralGenom kvalitativa intervjuer med barn i förskoleklass och genom enkätundersökningar hos pedagoger har jag fått svar på mina frågeställningar som handlar om pojkar, flickor och deras leksaksval då det gäller teknikbaserade leksaker. Syftet var att försöka se om det fanns skillnader i valet och användandet av dessa leksaker och i så fall försöka tydliggöra dem, och dessutom ta reda på varför barnen är olika i sina leksakspreferenser.
Resultatet påvisar att för barnen i denna förskoleklass är konstruktionsleksaker ett frekvent val i verksamheten. Alla barn leker med dessa leksaker, dock skiljer sig preferenserna åt beroende på om man är flicka eller pojke, både i hemmet och i förskoleklassen. Hur barnens preferenser uppkommer finns det delade meningar om, dock är huvudteorin enligt de forskarna/författare jag tagit del av, socialt betingat.
Pedagogiska slutsatser är att som pedagog måste man arbeta på ett målmedvetet sätt då det gäller leksaker och genus, man skall alltid ha med sig att leken har stor betydelse i barnens utveckling.
Nyckelord: genus, leksaker, preferenser, teknik
Through interviews with children in preschool class and through inquiries by questionnaire with their teachers, I have received answers of my question at issue about boys, girls and their choices of technical toys. The purpose was to see if there were any differences in choosing and using these toys, and also to find out if and why the children have different preferences.
The results indicate that for the children in this preschool class the choice of construction toys is common in the activities. All the children play with these toys, but still there are different preferences among girls and boys, both at home and in preschool class. There are differences in opinion among earlier researchers what causes boys and girls to differ in preferences of toys, but the main theory is still that gender differences depend on the family and the community.
Pedagogical conclusions are that as a teacher of young children, you have to work with awareness when it comes to toys and gender. You must never forget the important role toys play in the development of the children.
Keywords: gender, technical, toys, preferences

Texte intégralThis thesis studies ways in which inequality between and within groups affects consumer behaviors and welfare through social comparison effects. The objective is to provide a better understanding of a number of economic phenomena, namely: How to understand the extensive use of credit by lower income households in periods of stagnating real income growth? How do visible identities such as race or caste affect consumption choices, and can social hierarchies lead to poverty traps? Do luxury goods become more necessary when inequality rises, and what does such a phenomenon tell us about the social limits to growth? To that aim, the thesis incorporates important findings of behavioural economics, in particular on other-regarding preferences and subjective well-being, into theories of consumption and savings. Chapter 1 presents a model of relative consumption which accounts for comparison effects over time and across goods. The following chapters identify these effects using representative survey data and large datasets obtained via web-scrapping techniques. Chapter 2 looks at mortgage debt in the United States when households care about the relative size of their house. Chapters 3 and 4 study the social component of expenditures in India and its implication in terms of malnutrition using standard and structural estimation techniques

Advances in information and communications technologies are enabling the growth of real-time ride sharing-whereby drivers and passengers or fellow passengers are paired up on car trips with similar origin-destinations and proximate time windows-to improve system efficiency by moving more people in fewer cars. Lesser known, however, are the opportunities of shared mobility as a tool to foster and strengthen human interactions. In this dissertation, I used preference as a lens to investigate the social interaction in mobility sharing, including how the interpersonal preference in mobility sharing can be understood, utilized and reshaped.
More specifically, I answered the questions of how preference could be used to match fellow passengers and to improve trip experiences; how gender, one of the key factors may contribute to this preference; and in the reverse direction, if there are factors in the preference which are unrespectable and need to be changed, whether mobility sharing can be used as a tool to change it, and improve the integration of cities. Besides, I also studied how time flexibility of trips can be incorporated into mobility sharing models to reduce congestion. For policy makers and planners, this dissertation could partially answer or provide a framework of analysis to the following questions.
1) How could preference in mobility sharing services be used or misused? What is the efficiency trade-off, and how to regulate the use of it? 2) What factors may impact the preference for fellow passengers? Are the preference factors respectable, and what factors should be included/excluded in the mobility sharing services from a regulation perspective? 3) How can mobility sharing be actively used as a tool to encourage more social interaction, especially across different social groups? What is the short-term cost, and the long-term benefit? For the system designers of mobility sharing services, this dissertation can be used as a reference for the development of a preference-based mobility sharing platform. The following questions have been traced, and the methods can be improved when more data are available to the system designers.
1) If preference is to be used, what input data are needed, and how they need to be processed for the preference-matching model? 2) What preference factors should be included in the system design, what factors should be used with caution, and what factors should be eliminated? 3) If time flexibility of trips can be included in the system design, how much congestion can be reduced? What system design is needed in order to achieve this congestion reduction?

Seasonal differences in odor preference and social behavior existed among adult meadow voles. During the breeding season, a female preferred its own odor and the odor of males to the odor of another females. Males preferred the odor of females to the odor of other males. Paired encounters between breeding females were more agonistic than encounters between males or encounters between males and females. During the nonbreeding season, a female preferred the the odor of another female to the odor of males. Males did not display an odor preference for any conspecifics. Paired encounters between males were more agonistic than encounters between males and females or encounters between females. Encounters between nonbreeding females contained few agonistic acts. Seasonal differences also existed in the interactions between adults and juveniles. During the early breeding season, adult males were more agonistic than adult females toward juvenile males. During the late breeding season, adult females were more agonistic than adult males toward juvenile males. Encounters between an adult female and a juvenile female in the late breeding season contained few agonistic acts, indicating that overwintering groups are female-biased, and contain juvenile females. Juveniles did not display a shift in odor preferences. They preferred the odor of opposite-sex adults to the odor of same-sex adults, regardless of season. Familiarity, through association during rearing, reduced agonistic behavior between parents and young, and between siblings. Paired encounters between close-kin that were not familiar were agonistic, and similar to encounters between unfamiliar, and unrelated conspecifics. Conspecifics were more agonistic toward closely related males than females. Voles also preferred the odor of a familiar nestmate, independently of genetic relatedness. Familiarity decreased the number of agonistic behaviors between adult females, but increased the number of agonistic behaviors between adult males. Familiarity had no effect on the number of agonistic behaviors between a male and a female.

Texte intégralThe laboratory study consisted of two experiments where conflicting information about a novel food type and novel food-finding problem was provided simultaneously by a conspecific and a heterospecific (grackle) demonstrator. Both experiments showed that not only could Zenaida doves learn from another species, but that they preferred the heterospecific demonstrator over the conspecific. The results suggest that social information may be obtained more readily from foraging associations rather than interference competition and that the role of conspecifics may be overemphasized in cultural learning.

Texte intégralIn the pursuit of sustainable housing, a wider perspective than the technological solutions presented in accordance with an ecological modernization is required. Unexploited areas to use on the planet decreases constantly and therefore gives motives for the study to find out what preferences exist for one's own accomodation, how much living space the residents actually want and how they connect their living space with its environmental impact. The results show that the individuals value the location in relation to jobs, service and social context together with social areas and housing as a private sphere. An adequate and at the same time an ideal living area is considered to approximately 40-50 square meters per adult. All of them link their living space to some kind of environmental impact, but energy aspects in the use phase are what permeate the overall answer. Further perspectives such as land scarcity and material use are described more limited. The study hopes to provide a basis for more widespread work to meet the needs of the residents and to take the living space into consideration when planning future housing.

Texte intégralThis thesis contains three essays in behavioral ethics. By using tools from experimental economics and neurophysiology our work unveils some social and contextual determinants that affect decisions related to either honesty or fairness.The first chapter investigates how competitive incentives influence the impact of both group identity and the nature of the lie on (dis)honest behavior. Our results show that under competition, group identity plays no role, even when experimenters cannot directly observe the behavior of cheaters. However, participants are less dishonest when their lies directly affect their opponent than when they affect them only indirectly but only when there is no possible scrutiny from the experimenter.The second chapter examines the effect of being continuously informed about another participant’s performance on individuals’ dishonesty in both competitive and non-competitive settings. Our results show that, only non-competitive settings, participants are more likely to be dishonest when we give them continuous information or not. The lack of effect of social information in competitive settings is mainly due to the fact that, when they are not informed, male participants overestimate their opponent’s dishonesty. Thus, when informed of their opponent’s actual behavior, they adapt their behavior and cheat less than when uninformed.Finally, the third chapter studies whether experiencing a loss or a gain in a task affects a subsequent sharing decision. Consistent with our theoretical predictions, we find that losing money compared to a reference point, reduces people’s generosity while experiencing a gain increases individuals’ subsequent generosity. Unlike expected, the level of emotional arousal when individuals are informed about whether they gained or lost money does not explain their subsequent sharing decision
