Gender Differences in Preferences
综述了经济实验中性别差异的稳健发现,涵盖风险偏好、社会偏好和竞争偏好,并探讨其来源与对劳动和商品市场性别差异的启示。
This paper reviews the literature on gender differences in economic experiments. In the three main sections, we identify robust differences in risk preferences, social (other-regarding) preferences, and competitive preferences. We also speculate on the source of these differences, as well as on their implications. Our hope is that this article will serve as a resource for those seeking to understand gender differences and to use as a starting point to illuminate the debate on gender-specific outcomes in the labor and goods markets.
