Abstract:When interacting with others, individuals are sometimes known to condition their decisions on gender characteristics of the other person. In this study, we examine the effect of gender, and information disclosure about gender, on decisions about giving and reciprocating in a laboratory experiment. Treatments vary by the type of reciprocity tested (direct, indirect) and the information conditions (no information, imposed information, self-disclosed). Direct reciprocity conditions combined with imposed gender information leads to the greatest surplus generated. Notably, in the self-disclosed gender information condition, when subjects declined to reveal their gender, transfers from the other player were lowest. Thus, providing an option to make no comment about one’s own gender potentially harms an individual through the decisions made by others towards them. These findings could have important implications in the design of gender information collection and disclosure policies in a variety of settings.
