        AB  - To investigate the external validity of Ultimatum and Dictator game behavior we conduct
experiments in field settings with naturally occurring variation in "social framing." Our
participants are students at Middlebury College, non-traditional students at Kansas City
Kansas Community College (KCKCC), and employees at a Kansas City distribution center.
Ultimatum game offers are ordered: KCKCC > employee > Middlebury. In the Dictator game
employees are more generous than students in either location. This indicates that workers
behaved distinctly from both student groups because their allocations do not decrease
between games, an effect we attribute to the social framing of the workplace.
