Social preferences

  • ... that the study of social preferences in behavioral economics provides both theory and evidence to the fairwage-effort hypothesis (i.e. the hypothesis that workers proportionately decreases effort when actual wage is lower than their fair wage)?

  • Article is nominated outside of the seven day window (first edit was made on 26 November, nomination was submitted on 9 December), but the author is a first-time contributor to DYK so there can be some lenience. Article was 5x expanded (527b to 12kb). Nominator is QPQ exempt. No concerning pings on Earwigs. The hook definitely needs some work; it needs to be something that is interesting and understandable to a general audience, which this hook isn't. The second paragraph in the lede has some interesting facts that could probably make good hooks. Morgan695 (talk) 06:15, 14 December 2019 (UTC)
