In this paper, I use an incentivized, nationwide, online experiment to isolate how individual donation preferences respond to the allocation of donations across different accounts within a charity (activity and overhead). I develop and structurally estimate (using a minimum-distance estimator) a donor-utility model to rationalize the experimental findings.

In this paper, we use an incentivized, nationwide, online experiment to elicit individual donation schedules across a range of overhead allocation rates. We then use a coordination game to study how individuals with different overhead preferences contribute toward meeting a group-level overhead threshold.

In this paper, we use a laboratory experiment and a modified ultimatum game to study how individuals respond to structural inequality faced by others. We examine whether they attempt to address such inequality and whether they resort to dishonest behavior to do so. We also test whether disadvantaged individuals are more likely to condone such behavior when it benefits them.

In this paper, we use an incentivized, nationwide survey to elicit personal and perceived social norms around risky driving decisions and to collect data on individual driving behavior. We examine whether behavior responds to perceived norms and whether there is a gap between perceived social norms and true social norms, measured as the average of personal norms. We also explore how these patterns vary across age and gender groups.
