慈善机构经常宣布捐赠者的捐款，因为他们累算。这样做会诱使捐赠者进行顺序移动而不是错误移动游戏。我们研究了慈善机构更喜欢这种顺序游戏的条件。众所周知，如果捐赠者只通过其对公共产品总供应的影响来评估捐款，那么慈善机构将不会按顺序宣布捐款。然而，对于更一般的效用函数，包括额外的效果，如温暖的辉光或势利的吸引力，慈善机构可能会受益于宣布捐款。(C)2001 Elsevier Science BY保留所有权利。
Charities frequently announce contributions of donors as they accrue. Doing so induces donors to play a sequential-move rather than simultaneous-move game. We examine the conditions under which a charity prefers such sequential play. It is known that if donors only value contributions through their effect on the total provision of a public good, then the charity will not announce contributions sequentially. However, with more general utility functions that include additional effects such as warm-glow or snob appeal, the charity may benefit from announcing contributions.
