Abstract

This poster presents a study on the use of experimental economic games to study nurses鈥� altruism in South Africa, Kenya and Thailand. Altruism is measured by the proportion of money given up (to fellow students, to a patient and to a poor person). Multivariate analysis was performed to investigate the determinants of altruism, and to what extent altruism was correlated to job intentions.
