Effects of Cheap Talk on Consumer Willingness‐to‐Pay for Golden Rice
Open accessAbstract
A large body of literature suggests willingness‐to‐pay is overstated in hypothetical valuation questions as compared to when actual payment is required. Recently, “cheap talk” has been proposed to eliminate the potential bias in hypothetical valuation questions. Cheap talk refers to process of explaining hypothetical bias to individuals prior to asking a valuation question. This study explores the effect of cheap talk in a mass mail survey using a conventional value elicitation technique. Results indicate that cheap talk was effective at reducing willingness‐to‐pay for most survey participants; however, consistent with previous research, cheap talk did not reduce willingness‐to‐pay for knowledgeable consumers.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
