Risky decisions are often characterized by (a) imprecision about consequences and their likelihoods that can be reduced by information collection, and by (b) unavoidable background risk. This article addresses both aspects by eliciting risk attitude, prudence, and temperance in d... |

Oechssler, Jörg; Roomets, Alex; Roth, Stefan, 2016, "From imitation to collusion: a replication [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10075, heiDATA, V2, UNF:5:qSzzvlOu2rl8/AR8TIBEEQ== [fileUNF]
In oligopoly, imitating the most successful competitor yields very competitive outcomes. This theoretical prediction has been confirmed experimentally by a number of studies. A recent paper by Friedman et al. (J Econ Theory 155:185–205, 2015) qualifies those results in an interes... |

Mertens, Alica; von Krause, Mischa; Denk, Alexandra; Heitz, Theresia, 2020, "Gender differences in meat-eating behavior and environmental attitudes – The mediating role of the Dark Triad", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/KPY585, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:m/fJhuHUlo37Y+XZGy2i2w== [fileUNF]
Recently, Machiavellianism was identified as potential mediator explaining gender differences in meat-eating justification strategies, which in turn predicted actual meat consumption. The current study aimed to – on the one hand – replicate this empirical finding and to – on the... |

Anger, Michael; Wendelborn, Christian; Schickhardt, Christoph, 2023, "German funders' data sharing policies - A qualitative interview study [interview excerpts]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/FJAG0X, heiDATA, V1
Background Data sharing is commonly seen as beneficial for science, but is not yet common practice. Research funding agencies are known to play a key role in promoting data sharing, but German funders’ data sharing policies appear to lag behind in international comparison. This s... |
König-Kersting, Christian; Pollmann, Monique; Potters, Jan; Trautmann, Stefan T., 2020, "Good decision vs. good results: Outcome bias in the evaluation of financial agents [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/HQW24W, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:bFbob63euOZqXO04dtgSBQ== [fileUNF]
We document outcome bias in situations where an agent makes risky financial decisions for a principal. In three experiments, we show that the principal’s eval- uations and financial rewards for the agent are strongly affected by the random outcome of the risky investment. This ha... |
Diederich, Johannes; Goeschl, Timo; Waichman, Israel, 2016, "Group Size and the (In)Efficiency of Pure Public Good Provision [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/10069, heiDATA, V1, UNF:5:kp1aULj0nca125TUHszBUg== [fileUNF]
Are larger groups better at cooperation than smaller groups? This paper investigates, under controlled conditions, the presence and direction of a possible group size effect in pure public good provision by large heterogeneous groups. Employing subjects drawn from the general pop... |

Resource scarcity sharpens the conflict between short term gains and long term sustainability. Psychological research documents that decision makers focus on immediate needs under scarcity. While decision makers use available resources most effectively, they also borrow too much... |

Oechssler, Jörg; Rau, Hannes; Roomets, Alex, 2019, "Hedging, ambiguity, and the reversal of order axiom [Dataset]", https://doi.org/10.11588/data/1XDKHZ, heiDATA, V1, UNF:6:c8rHrHnmCxS3BC4O6euGVQ== [fileUNF]
We ran experiments that gave subjects a straight-forward and simple opportunity to hedge away ambiguity in an Ellsberg-style experiment. Subjects had to make bets on the combined outcomes of a fair coin and a draw from an ambiguous urn. By modifying the timing of the draw, coin f... |

The power to coerce workers is important for the efficient operation of hierarchically structured organizations. However, this power can also be used by managers to exploit their subordinates for their own benefit. We examine the relationship between the power to coerce and explo... |
