Sammendrag
It has been shown that participants in the dictator game are less willing to give

money to the other participant when their choice set also includes the option to

take money. We examine whether this effect is due to the choice set providing a

signal about entitlements in a setting where entitlements initially may be considered

unclear. We find that the share of positive transfers depends on the choice

set even when there is no uncertainty about entitlements, and that this choice-set

effect is robust across a heterogenous group of participants recruited from the

general adult population in Denmark. The findings are consistent with dictator

giving partly being motivated by a desire to signal that one is not entirely selfish

or by a desire to follow a social norm that is choice-set dependent.
