讲座1

讲座名称：Motivated by Karma

主讲人：Lawrence Choo, Tang Wei and Lei Zhen

主要内容：This research examines the impact of karma on belief formation. It employs an experimental design that evaluates the effects of voluntary charitable donations on participants' beliefs regarding their chances of winning a lottery. The study reveals a significant correlation between donations and beliefs, but only among participants who are receptive to karmic concepts. Additionally, it demonstrates that the influence of charitable donations on beliefs diminishes when the donations are not made voluntarily.

讲座名称：General Training and Reciprocal Motivations: An Experiment

主讲人：Lawrence Choo, Li Senran and Zhao Liang Fo

主要内容：In this experimental study, we examine the role of worker reciprocity—the tendency to reward kindness and punish unkindness—as a driving factor behind firms' investment in general training that benefits not only themselves but also other firms in the industry. Specifically, the experiment is designed to disentangle the effects of intention-based reciprocity from those of distributional preferences in explaining this behavior.
