Call for Unpublished Papers on Moral Economic Behavior for Meta-Analysis

Christian T. Elbaek, Panagiotis Mitkidis, Lene Aarøe, & Tobias Otterbring are currently collecting data for the first meta-analysis on how material scarcity (such as food scarcity, water scarcity or financial poverty) and self-regulatory-resources, respectively, affects moral economic behavior. Specifically, we are looking for studies with behavioral dependent measures of economic cheating, which also entail studies that use hypothetical choices as a measure of behavior.

Therefore, if you are currently conducting research within this area and have current working papers, unpublished papers or papers under review, we kindly ask you to reach out to us, so we can include such research into our meta-analysis.

If you are in doubt of whether your paper would fit the criteria of such a meta-analysis, we also strongly encourage you to reach out to us, as we want to exhaust all opportunities for including relevant research in our meta-analysis.

The pre-registration of the meta-analysis can be found at https://osf.io/dru4w
