http://www.neuroeconomics.nyu.edu/events_joint_lab_meeting.html Weblink of the week When we have a low opinion of someone, we tend to reject their money Research done in the Universities of Granada (Spain), Freiburg (Germany) and University College London (UK) has demonstrated that when we have a low opinion of somebody, we are more likely to reject their money, even though the offer is attractive, because the social information we have on that person influences our decision. Furthermore, people are prepared to even lose money rather than accept it from those they do not hold in high consideration.
