Apesteguia, Jose; Huck, Steffen; Oechssler, Jörg; Weidenholzer, Elke; Weidenholzer, Simon, 2018, "Imitation of Peers in Children and Adults [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HFTMST, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:QDuPhtFcF3CPULh+tQIpJQ== [fileUNF]
Imitation of the successful choices of others is a simple and superficially attractive learning rule. It has been shown to be an important driving force for the strategic behavior of (young) adults. In this study we examine whether imitation is prevalent in the behavior of childr... |

Reischmann, Andreas; Oechssler, Jörg, 2018, "The Binary Conditional Contribution Mechanism for public good provision in dynamic settings - Theory and experimental evidence [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/QHN1KT, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:oGAQOEsaP2z2MtFReyc6Uw== [fileUNF]
We present a new and simple mechanism for repeated public good environments. In the Binary Conditional Contribution Mechanism (BCCM), every agent's message has the form, “I am willing to contribute to the public good if at least k agents contribute in total.” This mechanism offer... |
König-Kersting, Christian; Trautmann, Stefan T., 2017, "Countercyclical Risk Aversion: Beyond Financial Professionals [Online Appendix and Replication Package]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HLGUFF, heiDATA, V3, UNF:6:uf5BEfv2apPfRJhp2qW+Kw== [fileUNF]
We test if Cohn et al.’s (2015) experimental results on countercyclical risk aversion exhibited by financial professionals generalize to a standard student sample. In our sample, we do not find an effect of stock market bust or boom on subjects’ investments. We do not find a syst... |
Kocher, Martin G.; Lahno, Amrei Marie; Trautmann,Stefan T., 2017, "Ambiguity aversion is not universal [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/BU56YA, heiDATA, V1
Assuming universal ambiguity aversion, an extensive theoretical literature studies how ambiguity can account for market anomalies from the perspective of expected utility-based theories. We provide a systematic experimental assessment of ambiguity attitudes in different likelihoo... |

Buckert, Magdalena; Oechssler, Jörg; Schwieren, Christiane, 2017, "Imitation under stress [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/VYCCZI, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:MAZqxVN4vzEoCVKBRyl1KQ== [fileUNF]
Imitation has been shown to be an important heuristic, in particular in relatively complex environments. In this experiment we test whether subjects are more likely to use imitation if they are under time pressure or distracted. Subjects play a repeated Cournot oligopoly. Treatme... |
Camacho, Salvador; Schwieren, Christiane; Ruppel, Andreas, 2017, "Promoting water consumption using behavioral economics insights [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10099, heiDATA, V1
Mexico has one of the largest overweight and obesity epidemics in the world and as a response, several actions aiming to reduce the obesity epidemic have been already set in place. Some of these actions include a specific action program for schools looking to turn the scholar env... |

Trautmann, Stefan T.; Van de Kuilen, Gijs, 2017, "Process fairness, outcome fairness, and dynamic consistency: experimental evidence for risk and ambiguity [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10097, heiDATA, V1
Literature on fairness preferences distinguishes between outcome fairness, concerning the final allocation of payoffs, and process fairness, concerning the expected allocation of payoffs. It is not obvious, however, whether process fairness can consistently be implemented. Once u... |

Krawczyk, Michal; Trautmann, Stefan T.; van de Kuilen, Gijs, 2016, "Catastrophic Risk: Social Influences on Insurance Decisions [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10096, heiDATA, V1
We study behavioral patterns of insurance demand for low-probability large-loss events (catastrophic losses). Individual patterns of belief formation and risk attitude that were suggested in the behavioral decisions literature emerge robustly in the current set of insurance choic... |
Waichman, Israel; Voss, Andreas, 2016, "Payment Procedure in a Public Good Game Experiment: The Effects of Endowment Timing, Tangibility, and Source [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10094, heiDATA, V1
We study whether and how payment procedure affects behavior in a repeated public good game. To this end, we conducted five treatments, varying the times of paying the initial endowment (week before, before, or after the decisions) and the source of the initial endowment (windfall... |
