我们使用一套经济实验来研究社会偏好的分配在肯尼亚西部的农村地区的劳动和非劳动收入。我们的实验改变了收入对个人努力的依赖程度，同时保持经济环境的其他方面不变。结果表明，在农村，相对权重放在别人并不取决于这些个人通过自己的努力增加了总剩余的程度。然而，受教育程度更高的受试者和那些来自靠近公路的村庄的受试者确实会奖励他人的努力;他们的分配决定与互惠模型一致。(C)2015 Elsevier B. V.版权所有。
We use a suite of economic experiments to study social preferences governing the distribution of earned and unearned income in rural villages in western Kenya. Our experiments vary the extent to which income depends on individual effort while holding other aspects of the economic environment constant. Results suggest that in rural villages, the relative weight placed on others does not depend on the extent to which those individual increased the total surplus through their own effort. However, more educated subjects and those drawn from villages closer to the road do reward others for their effort; their allocation decisions are consistent with models of reciprocity.
