Drawing on self-determination theory, we define need satisfaction as the fulfillment of autonomy, competence, and relatedness at work. We develop a utility framework in which need satisfaction enhances motivation, lowers the perceived marginal cost of effort, and fosters work meaningfulness, which in turn increases effort. Using original Dutch LISS panel survey data, we find that autonomy, competence, and relatedness are positively associated with work meaningfulness, which in turn relates to higher self-reported effort and stronger pro-effort attitudes. These results indicate that meaningfulness is not a fixed outcome but one that may be shaped by job design. This would imply that organizations can boost productivity and worker well-being by creating conditions that satisfy employees’ psychological needs. Our findings contribute to labor economics by integrating motivation as an endogenous outcome into labor supply models and by providing empirical evidence on the link between meaningfulness and effort.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 102460"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145319919","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 also find meaningful differences in likelihood insensitivity and pessimism across consumer segments, underscoring the need to incorporate flexible probability weighting functions and account for heterogeneity in preferences when valuing food-related health risks. Because our estimates are not tied to specific food items or types of adverse reactions, they can be scaled by the expected case numbers to inform societal cost estimates for mild food-borne illness or used in marketing to quantify the effect of risk reduction on the value chain of relevant products.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 102461"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145319916","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}

According to the scarcity theory, this pattern arises because scarcity depletes cognitive resources and narrows individuals’ attention to poverty-related concerns. The present study introduces a third, previously unexplored mechanism, positing that subjective scarcity indirectly affects financial behaviour by impairing analytic thinking. A representative sample of 712 participants completed a self-report survey, providing information about appraisal of their current financial situation (subjective scarcity), completing a test on analytic thinking, and responding to scales measuring financial management behaviour and impulsive self-gifting financial behaviour. Whilst the results offer limited support for the proposed mechanism, subjective scarcity was found to be directly associated with diminished analytic thinking and lower engagement in both financial management and self-gifting behaviour. These findings suggest that experiencing scarcity is not necessarily linked to impulsive financial behaviour that exacerbates financial strain, but rather to a lower tendency to pursue adaptive financial actions that might help relieve it.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 102481"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145579150","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 designed an experiment to examine whether presenting people in SUD recovery as having high or low agency impacts how much donors give in support of SUD recovery, and how donors allocate donations across paternalistic and non-paternalistic aid. Participants in our experiment could donate up to $100 to paternalistic and non-paternalistic SUD recovery support (aid to a recovery house and direct aid to those with SUD, respectively). We found that participants donated about $40 to SUD recovery, of which two-thirds was allocated to recovery houses (paternalistic aid). Both the low and high agency treatments increased recovery house donations, and the high agency treatment significantly increased overall donation amounts. In a follow-up experiment, we tested two additional treatments to rule out alternative explanations (besides agency) for our treatment effects, namely empathy towards residents (tested for by eliminating the description of the residents) and perceived recovery housing effectiveness (tested for by using an agency neutral description). The follow-up experiment replicated the main findings and the agency neutral treatment weakly increased overall donations in support of SUD recovery. These findings suggest that donors have strong preferences for providing paternalistic rather than non-paternalistic aid when supporting a stigmatized population. They also suggest that communicating characteristics of a stigmatized population may help increase donations, particularly if beneficiaries’ positive characteristics (such as agency) are emphasized and donors have the option to provide paternalistic aid.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 102465"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145361962","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}

Reconciling these trends may influence personalized public service design and adoption strategies. This study explores how to mitigate citizens’ reluctance to share data on personalized public services. Through a survey experiment, we offered two hypothetical services: one educational service (scholarship) and one health-related service (checkup). Respondents were randomly assigned to one of three groups, receiving different information: (i) a summary of service benefits; (ii) a summary of benefits with a data use disclosure; and (iii) a data usage disclosure. The findings show strong baseline interest in personalized services. However, data-use disclosures reduced interest in both services, resulting in declines of 2.7 to 3.0 percentage points. Providing detailed service descriptions increased interest by 5.0 and 6.1 percentage points for education and health services, respectively. This suggests that offering information about the benefits of the service can offset concerns about data privacy. These effects remained consistent among different population groups.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":51637,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics","volume":"119 ","pages":"Article 102447"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145104973","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}
