Abstract

This research note analyzes tipping percentages from academic studies of restaurant tipping and finds that tipping rates have increased over the past half century. This finding provides some evidence that tipping benefits tippers beyond helping them avoid social disapproval (Azar, 2004) and that tipping is used by consumers to compete for positional (zero-sum) benefits such as exceptional service and high status (Lynn, 2015). Since rising tipping rates increase the costs to consumers of dining out as well as pay-disparities between front-of-house and back-of-house staff, this is a trend the restaurant industry may want to try to end.

美国餐厅小费随着时间的推移发生了哪些变化？

本研究报告分析了餐厅小费学术研究中的小费百分比，发现在过去半个世纪中，小费率一直在上升。这一发现提供了一些证据，证明小费的好处不仅在于帮助小费使用者避免社会的不认可（Azar，2004 年），而且小费被消费者用来争夺地位（零和）利益，如特殊服务和高地位（Lynn，2015 年）。由于小费率的上升增加了消费者外出就餐的成本，也加大了前厅和后厨员工之间的薪酬差距，因此餐饮业可能会试图终止这一趋势。
