讲座内容简介(Abstract):Recent work based on experiments find micro-evidence of domestic audience costs in the United States: respondents are more likely to disapprove of leaders who back down after making threats, compared to leaders who made no threat in the first place.  Do audience costs exist in China?  Are members of domestic audiences in U.S. on average more likely to value credibility or competence than audiences in China?  In this study, we examine these questions by conducting a survey experiment in China.

最新的基于实验设计的研究对观众成本这一概念提供了实证支持：美国的受访者对作出公开承诺却未付诸实践的领导人的评价低于没有作出公开承诺的领导人。中国是否也存在类似的观众成本？如果有，中国的观众成本相对于美国而言更高还是更低？本文试以实验设计为方法探讨这些问题。
