题目：Gender information, personal preferences and children’s behavior -- Evidence from China.

内容摘要：Gender information and personal preferences, including individual and social preference, have a strong impact on Children’s behavior, In this presentation, I will present two projects related to children. The first project explores how same-gender pairing affects children’s social preferences. For this purpose, we conducted experiments involving a sample of more than 1000 children aged 8–12 years from two primary schools in China. The findings yielded by a randomized experimental design indicate that knowing that the partner is of the same gender makes children more likely to be altruistic or egalitarian type, but does not have a significant effect on the spiteful type. Specifically, when the subjects know that their partner is of the same gender, boys are more likely to be altruistic than girls, and girls are more likely to be egalitarian than boys. The second project investigates the relationship between individual preference and after-school time allocation. By focusing on three critical types of after-school time allocation, namely leisure, household work, and homework, we have found that more impatient children allocate more time to online entertainment and less time to watch TV. Meanwhile, more risk-averse children devote less time to play outside and more time to assisting their parents in household work. Additionally, more ambiguity-averse children spend less time on exercise. These findings indicate that the individual preferences of children can predict their decisions regarding time allocation.
