Most everyday goods can be more or less private in consumption. For example, a family may share one bathroom or may enjoy the luxury of one bathroom per person in which case the good has been completely privatized. Even such “personal” goods as haircuts may be shared in the sense that family members take turns …

Uchida, Y., Norasakkunkit, V., &Kitayama, S. (2004). Cultural constructions of happiness: theory and emprical evidence. Journal of happiness studies, 5(3), 223-239.
In a review of recent cross-cultural evidence on happiness and well-being, the authors identified substantial cultural variations in (1) cultural meanings of happiness, (2) motivations underlying happiness, and (3) predictors of happiness. Specifically, in North American cultural contexts, happiness tends to be defined in terms of personal achievement. Individuals engaging in these cultures are motivated …
Helliwell, J. F. (2006). Well‐being, social capital and public policy: what& #39;s new?. The Economic Journal, 116(510), C34-C45.
This article summarises recent empirical research on the determinants of subjective well‐being. Results from national and international samples suggest that measures of social capital, including especially the corollary measures of specific and general trust, have substantial effects on well‐being beyond those flowing through economic channels. Cross‐national samples (supported by parallel analysis of suicide data) show …
Powdthavee, N. (2008). Putting a price tag on friends, relatives, and neighbours: Using surveys of life satisfaction to value social relationships. The Journal of Socio-Economics, 37(4), 1459-1480.
There is substantial evidence in the psychology and sociology literature that social relationships promote happiness for the individual. Yet the size of their impacts remains largely unknown. This paper explores the use of shadow pricing method to estimate the monetary values of the satisfaction with life gained by an increase in the frequency of interaction …
Frey, B., &Feld, L. (2002). Deterrence and morale in taxation: An empirical analysis.
The standard model of tax evasion based on the subjective expected utility maximization does not perform particularly well in econometric analyses: It predicts too little evasion and produces unsatisfactory econometric parameter estimates. The model is extended by looking at how the tax authority deals with the taxpayers. Based on econometric estimates, it is shown that …

Feld, L. P., &Frey, B. S. (2002). Trust breeds trust: How taxpayers are treated. Economics of Governance, 3(2), 87-99.
Tax compliance has been studied in economics by analysing the individual decision of a representative person between paying and evading taxes. A neglected aspect of tax compliance is the interaction of taxpayers and tax authorities. The relationship between the two actors can be understood as an implicit or “psychological” contract. Studies on tax evasion in …
Pommerehne, W. W., &Weck-Hannemann, H. (1996). Tax rates, tax administration and income tax evasion in Switzerland.
This paper contains an empirical analysis of income tax noncompliance in Switzerland, based on the standard model of tax evasion. Noncompliance is found to be positively related to the marginal tax burden and negatively to the probability of audit, though the latter impact is only weak. There is no evidence of a significant deterrent effect …
Alm, J., McClelland, G. H., &Schulze, W. D. (1992). Why do people pay taxes?. Journal of public Economics, 48(1), 21-38.
Why do people pay taxes when they have an opportunity, even an incentive, to evade? The experimental results in this paper suggest that tax compliance occurs because some individuals overweight the low probability of audit, although such overweighting is not universal. The results also indicate that compliance does not occur simply because individuals believe that …
Oberholzer-Gee, F., Frey, B. S., Hart, A., &Pommerehne, W. W. (1995). Panik, Protest und Paralyse Eine empirische Untersuchung über nukleare Endlager in der Schweiz.
This paper deals with the question how to locate generally beneficial, but locally harmful facilities in accordance with citizens’ procedural preferences. The analysis of survey data collected among people potentially affected by such siting decisions shows that aspects of procedural fairness matter most when finding a site for a locally unwanted disamenity. Procedures including elements …
