| description | We aim to study the efficacy of different protocols in charitable donations, namely individual decision-making and group decision-making, through laboratory experiments. We propose that subjects in the group decision-making treatment would give more to charity as opposed to those in the individual decision-making condition due to increased levels of engagement. Our results, however, do not support this treatment effect for charitable giving but do show how various other factors such as conditional cooperation, preference alignment, primacy effect on charity selection and demographics affect the charitable giving decisions made by the individuals to varying degrees. This study is part of a bigger study by Associate Professor Jonathan Tan and Zichen Zhao from Nanyang Technological University Singapore and serves as a pilot to be improved upon.
