本文介绍了一个修改后的独裁者实验的结果，旨在区分和量化的内在动机给予。我们采用了一个实验设计，有三种不同的接受者（实验者，慈善机构）和数量通过（固定，变化）的治疗。我们发现，当受试者捐赠的数量挤出实验者捐赠的数量时，给实验者的捐赠与给慈善机构的捐赠没有显著区别，这样慈善机构总是收到固定的金额。这一结果表明，由克鲁普勒和格罗斯曼（J Public Econ 92（5-6）：1011-1021，2008）首次使用的后一种处理方法没有提供对暖光动机的干净测试。然后，我们提出了一种新的方法，检测温暖的辉光动机的基础上的想法，在随机彩票激励（RLI）计划，如我们雇用的，温暖的辉光积累，这可能会导致饱足，而纯粹的利他主义动机没有。我们还提供了温暖的辉光和纯粹的利他主义的动机，在我们的实验中，驱动给予的幅度上的界限。
This paper presents results from a modified dictator experiment aimed at distinguishing and quantifying intrinsic motivations for giving. We employ an experimental design with three treatments that vary the recipient (experimenter, charity) and amount passed (fixed, varying). We find giving to the experimenter not to be significantly different from giving to a charity, when the amount the subject donates crowds out the amount donated by the experimenter such that the charity always receives a fixed amount. This result suggests that the latter treatment, first used by Crumpler and Grossman (J Public Econ 92(5–6):1011–1021, 2008), does not provide a clean test of warm glow motivation. We then propose a new method of detecting warm glow motivation based on the idea that in a random-lottery incentive (RLI) scheme, such as the one we employ, warm glow accumulates and this may lead to satiation, whereas purely altruistic motivation does not. We also provide bounds on the magnitudes of warm glow and pure altruism as motives that drive giving in our experiment.
