Motives for sharing in social networks (2012, background): “The two recent papers studying the ‘who’ of sharing are Barr and Genicot (2008) and Attanasio et al. (2009). For the experiments reported in these papers subjects form risk-pooling groups.”
Field experiments in labor economics (2010, background): “We then move on to consider research questions related to behavior within firms: how individuals are incentivized within firms, and other aspects of the employment relationship.”
The challenge of understanding decisions in experimental studies of common pool resource governance (2011, methodology): “…experimentalists have used observational methods such as time blocks or focal follows (e.g., Hill and Gurven, 2004) and social network studies based on recall interviews (e.g., D'Exelle, 2008; Attanasio et al., 2009) to collect data on social interactions at the individual and community level.”
