When death approaches: reverting or exploiting emergent inequity in a complex land-use table-board game Ecology and Society
Smith, James A.; El Colegio de la Frontera Sur, Mexico ; nitac14b@yahoo.com.
The lives of poor landowners in tropical mountains depend upon their collective capacity to create and coordinate social preferences derived from their interacting communalistic, hierarchical, and reciprocal exchanges. External actors currently contend for these territories under market rules that are modifying such preferences. We present the design, experimental implementation, and analysis of results of a four-player, land-use board game with stark resource and livelihood limits and coordination/cooperation challenges, as played (separately) by 116 farmers and 108 academics, mainly in the tropical mountains of Chiapas, Mexico. In game session one, we trained and framed players in moral economy, a human core feeling and communalistic norm of solidarity...

Learning, Signaling, and Social Preferences in Public-Good Games Ecology and Society
Janssen, Marco A; Arizona State University; Marco.Janssen@asu.edu; Ahn, T. K.; Florida State University and Korea University; tahn@fsu.edu.
This study compares the empirical performance of a variety of learning models and theories of social preferences in the context of experimental games involving the provision of public goods. Parameters are estimated via maximum likelihood estimation. We also performed estimations to identify different types of agents and distributions of parameters. The estimated models suggest that the players of such games take into account the learning of others and are belief learners. Despite these interesting findings, we conclude that a powerful method of model selection of agent-based models on dynamic social dilemma experiments is still lacking.

Using crowdsourced imagery to detect cultural ecosystem services: a case study in South Wales, UK Ecology and Society
Gliozzo, Gianfranco; Extreme Citizen Science (ExCiteS) Research Group, University College London; Institute of Zoology, Zoological Society of London; g.gliozzo@ucl.ac.uk; Pettorelli, Nathalie; Institute of Zoology, Zoological Society of London; Nathalie.Pettorelli@ioz.ac.uk; Haklay, Mordechai (Muki); Extreme Citizen Science (ExCiteS) Research Group, University College London; m.haklay@ucl.ac.uk.
Within ecological research and environmental management, there is currently a focus on demonstrating the links between human well-being and wildlife conservation. Within this framework, there is a clear interest in better understanding how and why people value certain places over others. We introduce a new method that measures cultural preferences by exploring the potential of multiple online georeferenced digital photograph collections. Using ecological and social considerations, our study contributes to the detection of places that provide cultural ecosystem services. The degree of appreciation of a specific place is derived from the number of people taking and sharing pictures of it. The sequence of decisions and actions taken to share a digital picture...

Corporate and Consumer Social Responsibilities: Label Regulations in the Lab AgEcon
Etile, Fabrice; Teyssier, Sabrina.
Although consumer attitudes toward corporate social responsibility are positive, socially responsible (SR) products are far from gaining significant market shares. Information asymmetries have been identified as one of the factor contributing to this attitude-behaviour gap, because social responsibility is a credence attribute. Signalling may remedy this market failure. We use an experimental posted offer market to investigate the impact of various regulatory requirements for labels on sellers’ choice to supply SR products and to signal it, and on buyers’ choice of ethical quality. Three treatments are tested: label certification by a third-party, “cheap-talk signalling” with random monitoring and with or without reputations. Individual social preferences...

Implied Objectives of U.S. Biofuel Subsidies AgEcon
Rubin, Ofir D.; Carriquiry, Miguel A.; Hayes, Dermot J..
Biofuel subsidies in the United States have been justified on the following grounds: energy independence, a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, improvements in rural development related to biofuel plants, and farm income support. The 2007 energy act emphasizes the first two objectives. In this study, we quantify the costs and benefits that different biofuels provide. We consider the first two objectives separately and show that each can be achieved with a lower social cost than that of the current policy. Then, we show that there is no evidence to disprove that the primary objective of biofuel policy is to support farm income. Current policy favors corn production and the construction of corn-based ethanol plants. We find that favoring corn happens to...
