The Dean's Award for Outstanding Dissertation Thesis was awarded in September to Katarína Čellárová, a graduate of doctoral studies at ECON MUNI and an experimental economist. In her doctoral research she found, among other things, that exploitation is less common when people are aware that they may switch roles with the victim in the future. It also revealed that winners who sacrificed more to win felt they deserved a better reward.
