Cultural Education and the Voluntary Provision of Cultural Goods: An Experimental Study

Massimo Finocchiaro Castro

Experimental from EconWPA

Abstract: We study the effect of the possibility of investing in cultural education on the voluntary contributions to the cultural good. Moreover, we provide treatments with different context in order to control for a possible framing effect. Our results show the absence of effect of cultural education on the contributions to the cultural good and a slight increase in the allocations of subjects’ endowments to the cultural good when the cultural context is implemented in the laboratory.
