Effect of recipients’ absolute endowments on allocators’ probability of randomizing or allocating directly to one of the two potential recipients. The constant term captures allocators’ probability of allocating as indicated in the column head in the low endowment condition. Regressions control for individual level fixed effects; standard errors are heteroskedasticity-robust and clustered at the group level.
