内容摘要：This paper studies the efficacy of the donor-priority rule in promoting deceased organ donation under blood-type compatibility constraints in both theory and the laboratory. Compared with an allocation policy in which transplantations are operated only within the same blood-type group, we find that transferring organs across blood-type compatible groups discourages the donation incentives of hard-to-match agents, and reduces the supply of the more widely acceptable type of organs. Meanwhile, the easy-to-match agents have higher incentives to donate. At the aggregate level, our theoretical and experimental results both suggest that the aggregate donation rate is lower under allocation policies that allow blood-type compatible transplants among different blood-type groups.
