Trading Returns for Privacy: Experimental Evidence from Financial Data Leaks

Data from a laboratory experiment, in which participants had to complete an investment task in which one option in each decision may offer a higher expected return but carries an explicit probability that selected financial information (income, wealth, debt, and related indicators) could be revealed to peers, while the alternative option is privacy‐safe.本数据集源自一项实验室实验。实验中，参与者需完成一项投资任务：每一次决策均设有两个选项，其中一项可提供更高的预期收益，但存在明确概率——若参与者选中该选项，则其收入、财富、债务及相关指标等选定财务信息将被同辈参与者获知；另一项选项则具备隐私安全性。
