An Experiment on Waiting Time and Punishing Behavior

Economics Bulletin, 2013, vol. 33, issue 2, 1383-1389

Abstract: We investigate the implications of waiting time on the decision to punish in a power-to-take experiment. We find that (a) waiting reduces the overall probability of destroying and (b) responders destroy more often in response to higher take rates when the waiting time is longer.
