About this book

Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Economics - Macro-economics, general, grade: 2, 3, Technical University of Chemnitz, language: English, abstract: This paper describes the basic elements of an experimental design, beginning with a short introduction to that topic with the example why are people contributing willingly money and why they act the way they act. Then the most commonly design of the voluntary contribution mechanisms is shortly analyzed followed from disturbing factors that might influence an experiment in an undesireable way. That may distort the evaluation process. Next to this most influencing factors are analysed which lead to different human behaviour and explain the experiments' results on factors like altruism, group size, earnings, etc. Finally a conclusion sums up and suggests an experiment over the internet where the "experimentator" is able to follow the decision process in a kind of chatroom.Dieses Paper bietet ein Übersicht ĂŒber experimentelle Rahmenbedingungen, die sich mit dem "Trittbrettfahrerverhalten" beschĂ€ftigen. Dabei wird nach einer Einleitung auf die grundsĂ€tzlichen "Basisbeschaffenheiten" eines Experiments abgestellt und es werden mögliche verzerrende (nichtintendierte) Faktoren analysiert, die das Expermiment "verfĂ€lschen" können. Schließlich werden ErklĂ€rungsansĂ€tze fĂŒr die unterschiedlichen experimentellen Resultate anhand der wichtigsten EinflussgrĂ¶ĂŸen wie Altruismus, GruppengrĂ¶ĂŸe, Lerneffekte, u.a. erklĂ€rt. Im Fazit wird dann ein letztes Beispiel gebracht, in dem die Interaktionen zwischen den Teilnehmern beobachtet werden können, da das Experiment ĂŒber das Internet durchgefĂŒhrt worden ist und es werden Dinge aufgezeigt, die kĂŒnftig noch zu erforschen sind.
