Shafir et al. (1997) described money illusion as people’s inclination to think of money without taking inflation sufficiently into account, i.e., in nominal terms rather than in real terms. We successfully replicated Problems 1 to 4 of Shafir, Diamond, and Tversky’s study (1997) on money illusion (MTurk; N = 604). We found effect sizes in line with the original ones for assessments of income (Problem 1; original: Cramer’s V = 0.26, 95% CI [0.17, 0.37]; replication: V = 0.28 [0.21, 0.36]), transactions (Problem 2; original: 48% [42%, 52%]; replication: 70% [66%, 73%]), sales and consumption (Problem 3; original buy: 38% [33%, 43%]; replication buy: 47% [43%, 51%]; original sell: 43%% [38%, 48%]; replication sell: 43% [39%, 47%]), and contracts (Problem 4; original: V = 0.25 [0.13, 0.42]; replication: V = 0.17 [0.10, 0.25]). With an added extension, we found no support for the notion that knowing about or correctly estimating the inflation rate affected money illusion. We discuss theoretical implications for the study of money illusion and the psychological meaning of inflation, as well as for the understanding of the antecedents of money illusion.

Shafir等。（1997）将货币错觉描述为人们倾向于在不充分考虑通货膨胀的情况下思考货币，即名义上而非实际上。我们成功地复制了Shafir，Diamond和Tversky（1997）关于货币幻觉（MTurk; N  = 604）的研究的问题1-4 。我们发现效果大小与用于收入评估的原始大小一致（问题1；原始：Cramer的V  = 0.26，95％CI [0.17，0.37]；重复性：V = 0.28 [0.21，0.36]），交易（问题2；原始：48％[42％，52％]；复制：70％[66％，73％]），销售和消费（问题3；原始购买：38 ％[33％，43％]；复制购买：47％[43％，51％]；原始出售：43 %% [38％，48％]；复制出售：43％[39％，47％]），和合同（问题4；原始：V  = 0.25 [0.13，0.42]；复制：V  = 0.17 [0.10，0.25]）。通过增加扩展，我们发现对于了解或正确估计通货膨胀率会影响货币幻觉的观点没有任何支持。我们讨论了对货币幻觉和通货膨胀的心理意义的研究的理论意义，以及对货币幻觉的先例的理解。所有数据，代码和材料都可以在https://osf.io/rv9mw/上获得。
