• Anonymity in the Dictator Game Revisited (2012, background): “Other studies find that dictators prefer not to enter the game or to exit it, if receivers have no knowledge about participating in the experiment (Dana et al., 2006; Lazear et al., 2006; Broberg et al., 2007).”
• The behavioural economics of climate change (2008, unknown): “Broberg et al. (2007) provide similar results.”
• Sorting in Experiments with Application to Social Preferences (2019, methodology): “We also analyzed an alternate dataset (Broberg, Ellingsen, and Johannesson 2007), in which subjects first played a dictator game (Decision 1) and then stated a reservation price for exiting the game.”

(2007) extend this design by eliciting a subject’s willingness to pay to exit using a BDM mechanism. They find more subjects are willing to exit, and for higher prices. Finally, and serving as the inspiration for this design, Lazear et al. (2012) (LMW henceforth) examine both costly (”
• Shifting the Blame: On Delegation and Responsibility (2008, unknown): “(2006), Broberg et al. (2007), and Lazear et al.”
• Do people care about social context? Framing effects in dictator games (2012, unknown): “…disappear when the Prisoners’ dilemma is played sequentially, Ellingsen et al. (2012) suggest that social framing effects in the Prisoners’ dilemma work primarily through beliefs.3 In this paper, we investigate the preference channel more directly, by varying the social frame in a Dictator game.”
• Avoiding the Ask: A Field Experiment on Altruism, Empathy, and Charitable Giving (2017, unknown): “For example, in the context of the dictator game,many “dictators” choose to pay a portion of their endowment for the right to exit the game (Dana, Cain, andDawes 2006; Broberg, Ellingsen, and Johannesson 2007; Lazear, Malmendier, and Weber 2012).”
