Project Description

Summary:  View help for Summary
Do men incur a psychological cost when they are outperformed by a woman
competitor? We conduct a laboratory experiment that allows us to measure this
cost. The experiment is conducted in both the US and China. In our Chinese
sample, men are willing to pay more to hide the fact that they have performed
worse than another individual than women are, while there is no gender difference
in the US. In China, women are willing to pay more to hide poor performance when
losing to another woman than to a man, while in the US, the opposite pattern is
observed.
