The co-evolution of peer reward mechanisms and cooperation
Endogenous peer reward mechanisms have been shown to be effective in promoting contributions in public goods games (Yang et al. 2018). However, prior research has not shown whether such a mechanism itself is capable of being fully self-determined by decision-makers voluntarily. In a laboratory experiment, we endogenize the peer reward mechanism by allowing players to select their preferred fraction of total income in the public goods game to use …

Majority views and confidence information promote informed decisions
In a world where verifying facts is challenging and individual opinions are pervasive, how do people leverage the “wisdom of crowds”? We presented decision-makers with true or false statements and evaluated how they use varying levels of social information, from others’ views to confidence levels and higher-order beliefs, to form their judgments. Our results show that social information combining majority opinion and confidence data is particular…

Plant Functional Traits Mediate the Effects of Flooding on Biomass Allocation in Invasive Plant Communities
Understanding biomass allocation strategies in invasive plants is crucial for developing effective management approaches. However, the mechanisms by which plant functional traits and soil properties influence biomass allocation in invaded communities, particularly in invasion‐prone riparian zones, remain poorly understood. Here, we collected data on functional traits, biomass, and soil factors from invasive (IP) and non‐invasive (NP) plant commun…
Faces of “Revolutionary Romanticism”
How Downward Comparisons Impact Pro‐Environmental Consumption
Previous studies show that people often feel more capable of prosocial behaviours after downward comparisons. However, there is limited research on how downward comparisons affect pro‐environmental consumption. We conducted two online experiments to investigate the impact of downward comparisons on pro‐environmental consumption under temporal (Study 1) and social (Study 2) comparisons in China. The results show that downward temporal comparison p…
