Summary/Abstract: My paper tries to see if there are any economic behavioral differences between male and female senders/receivers in a standard one-shot trust game played by international students at Università degli Studi di Brescia, Italy. During twenty-four experimental sessions, participants, both senders and receivers, have not discriminated against when playing with partners of different gender.
