DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to invite you to the next BEA’s Online Research Seminars and are pleased to welcome Agne Kajackaite (WZB Berlin Social Science Center). Dr. Agne Kajackaite is a behavioral economist and head of research group”Ethics and Behavioral Economics” at the Berlin Social Science Center. She has received her PhD from the University of Cologne and before joining the Berlin Social Center in 2017 she was a PostDoc at the University of\nSouthern California in Los Angeles. In her research she aims to understand\nunethical behavior\, particularly lying behavior\, by conducting economic\nlab experiments. Further topics in her research are cognitive performance\,\ngender\, incentives\, risk preferences\, and ignorance. She has published papers in journals such as the American Economic Review\, the Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization\, PLOS ONE and Games and Economic Behavior. \nMore about the speaker: https://sites.google.com/site/agnekajackaite/home?authuser=0  \nSpeaker: Agne Kajackaite (WZB Berlin Social Science Center) \nTitle: Lying for Image \nAbstract: The extensive literature on lying in economics has focused nearly\nexclusively on lying for monetary rewards. However\, in everyday\ninteractions\, lying to gain a social image benefit – to appear to be\nbetter than one is – is ubiquitous\, and perhaps even more common than\nlying to gain a material advantage. In this paper\, we introduce three\nnovel lab and online experiments to study lying for social image. We show\nthat social image is a strong driver of lying behavior. In addition\, we\nshow that people are not willing to lie for money\, if the lie could hurt\ntheir social image. In particular\, the majority of Democrats would rather\nleave the experiment empty-handed than state that they preferred Trump\nover Obama. \nDate: Thursday\, January 21 \nTime: 16:00 Vilnius\, Riga\, Tallinn \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://sseriga-edu.zoom.us/j/89616955914?pwd=TE9ZNlJyMWFOV0VKUldsSFBUK1pwZz09 \nMeeting ID: 896 1695 5914\nPasscode: 715079 \n
