Trust and Reciprocity between Spouses in India
在印度已婚夫妇中开展首次信任博弈实验，发现配偶作为发送者时平均只转出57%的初始资金，导致家庭潜在收益减半，揭示了家庭内部缺乏帕累托效率。
I present results from the first trust game conducted among married couples. The experiment consisted of a one-shot trust game where spouses were taken into separate rooms, not allowed to communicate, given a significant endowment, and both strategies and payoffs were common knowledge. Results indicate that only 3 percent of spouses in the sender role transfer the entire amount; the average proportion sent is 57 percent of the endowment. The limited sending is costly because the household on average is walking away with half of the potential earnings. The results provide further evidence of the lack of Pareto Efficiency within the household.
