A new method called coupled lotteries was created to study how people feel about inequality. In this method, two people are given the same choices, and they decide if they want to play the game together or separately. This method was tested in Thailand and Germany. The results showed that people who chose to play together were more cautious with risks, cared about their social status, and used insurance more often. However, this choice was not linked to how generous they were in a game where they could share money.
