Reducing variance or helping the poorest? A mouse tracking approach to investigate cognitive bases of inequality aversion in resource allocation [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Humans dislike unequal allocations. Although often conflated, such ‘inequality-averse’ preferences are separable into two elements: egalitarian concern about the variance and maximin concern about the poorest (maximizing the minimum). Recent research has

Relative Deprivation: How Subjective Experiences of Income Inequality Influence Risk Preferences [PDF]
Behavioral SciencesEconomic inequality has been linked to changes in individual risk-taking behavior, yet the underlying mechanisms remain underexplored. In this study, I examine whether feelings of relative deprivation from upward social comparisons influence risk ...
