Abstract

In this experimental study involving subjects from Abu Dis (West Bank) Chengdu (China) Helsinki (Finland) and Jerusalem (Israel) we test for a presentation bias in a two person cooperation game In the positive frame of the game a transfer creates a positive externality for the opposite player and in the negative frame a negative one Subjects in Abu Dis and Chengdu show a substantially higher cooperation level in the positive externality treatment In Helsinki and Jerusalem no framing effect is observed These findings are also reflected in a sociated first order beliefs We argue that comparisons across subject pools might lead to only partially meaningful and opposed conclusions if only one treatment condition is evaluated We therefore suggest a complementary application and consider anon of different presentations of identical decision problems within (cross cultural) research on subject pool differences (C) 2010 Elsevier BV All rights reserved
