Christiane Schwieren and Matthias Sutter

Economics Letters, 2008, vol. 99, issue 3, 494-497

Abstract: We examine gender differences in trust in another party's cooperation (CC) or its ability (AC). While men and women do not differ concerning trust in cooperation, gender has a strong influence when trust in another subject's ability is required.
