为迎接4556银河国际线路测试40周年校庆，4556银河国际线路测试持续开展一系列学术讲座。5月4日下午，学院邀请中国人民大学经济学院教授、中国行为与实验经济学论坛（ChinaBEEF）秘书长——王湘红教授前来学院作专题学术讲座，讲座主题为：Asymmetric Framing in a Public Goods Game with Asymmetric Endowments。

              

本次讲座介绍了王湘红教授近期的研究成果，主要内容为：Individual contributions to public goods can be framed in absolute or relative metrics. We examine how the framing salience affects the contribution behavior when group members are heterogeneously endowed, based on a reference-dependent theory with salience weights allocated to the absolute or relative reference points. We test our theory through an experimental design where the framing is either uniform (absolute or relative for all players) or asymmetric for players with different endowments. We find that absolute framing incentivizes higher public goods contributions than the relative framing, while the asymmetric framing with relative for high-type and absolute for low-type members leads to increased contribution levels. We further discuss the competing effects of framing salience and the self-serving bias on contribution behavior. Our study contributes to a better understanding of the preference for absolute vs. relative comparisons, and provides implications for related public policies for public goods.。

本次讲座结束后，王湘红教授耐心解答学院师生的问题，并与学院师生进行了深入地交流，现场学术交流气氛踊跃。
