英文摘要：
  Research shows that women volunteer significantly more for tasks that people prefer others to complete. Such tasks carry little monetary incentives because of their very nature. We use a modified version of the volunteer\'s dilemma game to examine if non-monetary interventions, particularly, social recognition can be used to change the gender norms associated with such tasks. We design three treatments, where a) a volunteer receives positive social recognition, b) a non-volunteer receives negative social recognition, and c) a volunteer receives positive, but a non-volunteer receives negative social recognition. Our results indicate that competition for social recognition increases the overall likelihood that someone in a group has volunteered. Positive social recognition closes the gender gap observed in the baseline treatment, so does the combination of positive and negative social recognition. Our results, consistent with the prior literature on gender differences in competition, suggest that public recognition of volunteering can change the default gender norms in organizations and increase efficiency at the same time.

中文摘要：
研究表明，女性自愿承担的任务明显多于人们希望他人完成的任务。由于这些任务本身的性质，它们几乎没有金钱激励。我们使用志愿者困境游戏的一个修改版本来检验是否可以使用非金钱干预，尤其是社会认可来改变与这些任务相关的性别规范。我们设计了三种治疗方法，其中a）志愿者获得积极的社会认可，b）非志愿者获得消极的社会认可，c）志愿者获得积极的社会认可，但非志愿者获得消极的社会认可。我们的研究结果表明，为了获得社会认可而进行的竞争增加了团队中某个人自愿加入的总体可能性。积极的社会认知弥合了基线治疗中观察到的性别差异，积极和消极社会认知的结合也是如此。我们的研究结果与之前关于竞争中性别差异的文献一致，表明公众对志愿服务的认可可以改变组织中默认的性别规范，同时提高效率。
