Anonymity in the Dictator Game Revisited (2012, background): “Bardsley (2008) and List (2007) report that dictators even withdraw resources from recipients when they have the choice in the “taking game”.”
On the Interpretation of Giving in Dictator Games (2007, methodology): “First, the data suggest that current interpretations of dictator game data likely need revision.”
Experimenter demand effects in economic experiments (2010, positive): “Their potential relevance for experimental economics has been cogently highlighted by Bardsley (2005, 2008) , and is arguably more generally felt in journal refereeing activity where experimental designs are criticized for falling afoul of EDE.”
Genetic Variation in Preferences for Giving and Risk Taking (2009, background): “For instance, nancial risk-taking has been shown to vary over the menstrual cycle in women (Bröder and Hohmann, 2003; Chen, Katuscak and Ozdenoren 2005), and correlates both with facial masculinity and circulating testosterone levels in men (Apicella et al. 2008).”
Altruistic behavior in a representative dictator experiment (2008, result): “Like List (2007) and Bardsley (2008), we think that our results suggest the importance of institutions in distribution games and that by varying the institutional rules of the game we learn more about the distribution of social preferences in the lab and the field.”
The external validity of giving in the dictator game (2012, background): “Thus, Bardsley (2008) and List (2007) find that individuals share much less or even withdraw money if dictators have the option to do so.”
A within-subject analysis of other-regarding preferences (2011, background): “See also Bardsley (2008) who finds that dictator games with and without taking opportunities are perceived as fundamentally different decision problems.”
Dictator games: a meta study (2011, background): “…Knafo and Israel 2007; List 2007; Stanton 2007; Vanberg 2007; Whitt and Wilson 2007; Ahmed 2008; Ahmed and Salas 2008; Asheim, Helland et al. 2008; Bardsley 2008; Bellamare, Kröger et al. 2008; Ben-Ner, Kramer et al. 2008; Boschini, Muren et al. 2008; Bosco 2008; Cárdenas, Candelo et al. 2008;…”
Personality Psychology and Economics (2011, positive): “List (2007) and Bardsley (2008) modified the standard dictator game by giving the second player an endowment and allowing the first player to transfer a positive amount to the second player or to take part of the second player's endowment.”
Human behavioral ecology: current research and future prospects (2013, background): “2007), and much of behavioral economics consists of artificial games whose relevance to actual allocation decisions outwith the laboratory has been questioned (Levitt and List 2007; Bardsley 2008; Gurven and Winking 2008).”
