''Does the direct-response method induce guilt aversion in a trust game?''
( 2013, Vol. 33 No.1 )
 
 
We compare the strategy and direct-response methods in a one-shot trust game with hidden action. In our experiment, the decision elicitation method is not statistically associated with participants' behavior or beliefs. We find no evidence that the direct-response method induces guilt aversion.
 
 
Keywords: Trust, guilt aversion, strategy method, direct-response method, behavioral economics, experimental economics
