Research Abstract

We conducted a behavioral economic study on labor supply behavior using economic experiments and Web-based surveys. First, by conducting an experiment on Japanese high school students, we quantified the impact of sibling structure on one's preference for competition, and examined whether a long-debated sibling hypothesis in psychology is supported from the viewpoint of experimental economics. Second, we conducted a real-effort laboratory experiment to investigate the relationship between income and giving. Third, we conducted a Web survey on the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake on the behavioral economic parameters. Fourth, we explored the effects of the 1995 Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake on the wages for people in the stricken area by the earthquake over the 17 years after its occurrence and identified which part of the wage distribution has been most affected by this event by comparing the wage distributions to disaster victims and non-victims.
