TY - JOUR A1 - Keser, Claudia A1 - Kliemt, Hartmut A1 - Späth, Maximilian T1 - Charitable giving BT - the role of framing and information JF - PLoS ONE N2 - We investigate how different levels of information influence the allocation decisions of donors who are entitled to freely distribute a fixed monetary endowment between themselves and a charitable organization in both giving and taking frames. Participants donate significantly higher amounts, when the decision is described as taking rather than giving. This framing effect becomes smaller if more information about the charity is provided.
