Recent work in Cohn et al. (2019) shows that civic honesty and cooperative behaviour captured in a wallet-return experiment varies considerably across the world. Similarly, beliefs about social trust vary substantially as revealed by a multitude of cross-national questionnaire-based surveys. Previous studies have questioned whether survey-based measures correlate with honest and cooperative behaviour at the individual level. This paper uses the new data from Cohn et al. (2019) to test the association between cooperative behaviour and the trust culture captured in questionnaires. Comparisons of wallet return rates and questionnaire trust across 38 countries and 105 European regions show that experimental behaviour and social trust measured in questionnaires are strongly correlated.

最近在Cohn等人的工作。（2019）表明，钱包回报实验中捕捉到的公民诚实和合作行为在全球范围内差异很大。同样，对社会信任的看法也大不相同，这一点在众多基于问卷调查的跨国调查中都得到了揭示。先前的研究质疑基于调查的措施是否与个人层面的诚实与合作行为相关。本文使用了Cohn等人的新数据。（2019）测试问卷中捕获的合作行为与信任文化之间的关联。在38个国家和105个欧洲地区进行的钱包回报率和问卷信任度的比较表明，问卷中测得的实验行为和社会信任度高度相关。
