This might be important because menstrual management in low-and-medium-income countries are often shrouded by shame and sense of impurity, creating a background of Social Desirability Bias (SDB). This study employs List Experiment (LE) technique alongside direct questions in a survey of 1200 young women from Bihar and West Bengal to present a new measurement of preference for marketed sanitary product and detect SDB in reporting in direct question. The results show strong presence of SDB, particularly among women belonging to Islamic faith (32 %), general castes (30 %) and with more than primary education (31 %). Correlates of menstrual spending with true responses provide new insights into product choice, revealing that the motivation is driven more by the desire to conceal menstruation than hygiene concerns. Post-marital intra-household agency and access to open discussions about menstruation with all genders assume a crucial role in understanding the need for spending on period products, drawing policy highlights on inclusive IEC and initiatives to discard the menstrual disgrace.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 102406"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144523750","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a laboratory experiment where participants were given two versions of an incentivized prediction task, one of which allowed cheating. Cheating on the task led a charity to lose endowed money. By introducing an auction for a limited spot in the cheating-enabling version, we examined whether honest participants bid in the auction to prevent dishonest participants from cheating and thereby harming the charity. We found that such behavior was rare, with at most 2.2 % of participants engaging in it. Furthermore, the size of the charity loss and the presence of information about cheating of others did not affect bidding in the auction and cheating in the task. The participants willing to pay for the cheating-enabling version of the task did so primarily for their own gain. The prosocial preferences of honest individuals are not strong enough to prevent dishonest individuals from seizing positions of power, and only a few honest individuals are prepared to combat dishonesty actively.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 102407"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144518478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explore payment mechanisms aimed at increasing the number of participants who complete all tasks. Specifically, we investigate the impact of empowering participants with the option to self-select between a piece rate payment method, rewarding each task completed, and an all-or-nothing payment method, which grants full payment only if all assigned tasks are finished. Data from two longitudinal studies shows that the self-select payment mechanism attracts more participants to sign up. Importantly, participants are willing to choose the all-or-nothing incentive when given a choice and subsequently achieve a higher rate of completing all tasks compared to those who are randomly assigned to a payment method. Nonetheless, the higher completion rate is accompanied by a trade-off: the quality of task completion diminishes when participants select the all-or-nothing scheme. Our findings suggest that offering the all-or-nothing incentive as an option can effectively achieve a higher rate of full completion provided that adequate quality control measures are in place.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"117 ","pages":"Article 102409"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144535181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
