Their clever paper asks givers and receivers to【C8】______gifts from two perspectives: desirability ( e. g, the cost of a coffee maker) and feasibility (e.g.the【C9】______of the coffee maker). Across several experiments, they find that givers, consistently give gifts based on desirability and receivers【C10】______favor gifts based on feasibility.
