MATCHING SUBSIDIES AND VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS: A REVIEW
综合梳理了关于慈善捐赠中匹配补贴的实验文献,从短期效应、匹配率、行为反应的背景依赖性、捐赠价格、长期效应和非线性匹配方案六个方面分类总结,并指出未来研究方向。
Abstract This paper provides a synthesis of the experimental literature on matching subsidies in the context of charitable giving. We classify results according to four different outcome variables frequently considered in the literature and address (i) short‐term effects of linear matching, (ii) the role of the matching rate, (iii) context‐dependence of behavioural responses, (iv) the relevance of the price of giving, (v) long‐term effects and (vi) nonlinear matching schemes. Based on this comprehensive review, we highlight several avenues for future research, such as putting stronger emphasis on competition in fundraising, long‐term effects or heterogeneity in responses.
