A great study of impersonal honesty using the lost wallet paradigm in 355 cities spanning 40 countries (17,000 lost wallets). Big variation across cities, but (almost) everywhere people were MORE likely to return the wallet when it had MORE money in it. @MichelAMarechal

[Devin Pope @Devin_G_Pope]

Other than money, what motivates people to do great (and terrible) things that are perhaps understudied in economics? My list:
Belonging
Sense of purpose/meaning
Religion
Honor and loyalty
Curiosity
Thrill seeking
Role models and celebrities
Power

Love this solution to ordering the names of authors in economics, where alphabetical is the norm. Special symbol indicating certified randomization. Now endorsed by @AEAjournals https://t.co/5IUdelQiNQ

Excellent animation showing how rich people think they are middle class.

Barely anybody believes to belong to the top 20% (here in Austria).
