A Competitive Equilibrium for a Warm Glow Economy
Despite a widespread interest in the warm glow model [Andreoni (1989,1990)], surprisingly most attention focused on the voluntary contribution equilibrium of the model, and only very little attention has been devoted to the competitive equilibrium. In this paper, we introduce the notion of competitive equilibrium for a warm glow economy [Henceforth, warm glow equilibrium]. Then, we establish (a...
متن کاملThe Price of Warm Glow
The Price of Warm Glow This paper presents a model and experimental evidence to explain the “volunteering puzzle" where agents prefer volunteering time to donating money when monetary donations are, ceteris paribus, more efficient for providing resources to charity. In the model agents receive heterogeneous utility from pure and impure altruism (Andreoni 1989) that permits warm glow to vary bet...

An Experimental Investigation of Intrinsic Motivations for Giving This paper presents results from a modified dictator experiment aimed at distinguishing and quantifying the two intrinsic motivations for giving: warm glow and pure altruism. In particular, we implemented a within-subject experimental design with three treatments: (i) one, T1, where the recipient is the experimenters, which measu...
متن کاملThe Last Refuge of a Scoundrel? Patriotism and Tax Compliance
The Last Refuge of a Scoundrel? Patriotism and Tax Compliance We study the effects of patriotism on tax compliance. In particular, we assume that individuals feel a (random draw of) warm glow from honestly paying their taxes. A higher expected warm glow reduces the government's optimal audit probability and yields higher tax compliance. Second, individuals with higher warm glow are less likely ...
متن کاملMotives for Giving: A Reanalysis of Two Classic Public Goods Experiments*
Experimental work in economics prompted the development of theories of other-regarding behavior. In this paper we reanalyze two classic public goods experiments and focus on the nature individuals’ responses to others’ behavior in order to help distinguish alternative motives of giving, including altruism, warm glow, reciprocity and inequality aversion. Analysis that allows for asymmetric feedb...
