本文报告了对37篇论文的荟萃分析结果,其中75个结果来自最后通牒游戏实验。We.发现提议者平均提供40%的馅饼给回应者。这个份额是较小的较大的饼大小和较大时,使用的策略方法或当科目是没有经验的,平均16%的报价被拒绝。对于较大的馅饼大小和提供的较大份额,拒绝率较低。当采用策略方法时,应答者不太愿意接受提议。由于研究结果来自不同的国家,元分析提供了另一种方法来研究最后通牒博弈中的讨价还价行为是否因国家而异。我们发现不同地理区域的响应者(而不是提议者)的行为存在差异。除了一个例外,这些差异不能归因于各种文化特征,例如霍夫施泰德(1991)和英格尔哈特(2000)的文化分类所依据的文化特征。
This paper reports the findings of a meta-analysis of 37 papers with 75 results from ultimatum game experiments. We. find that on average the proposer offers 40% of the pie to the responder. This share is smaller for larger pie sizes and larger when a strategy method is used or when subjects are inexperienced, On average 16% of the offers is rejected. The rejection rate is lower for larger pie sizes and for larger shares offered. Responders are less willing to accept an offer when the strategy method is employed. As the results come from different countries, meta-analysis provides an alternative way to investigate whether bargaining behavior in ultimatum games differs across countries. We find differences in behavior of responders (and not of proposers) across geographical regions. With one exception, these differences cannot be attributed to various cultural traits on which for instance the cultural classifications of Hofstede (1991) and Inglehart (2000) are based.
