Isi artikel

We investigate how fairness concerns influence individual behaviour in social dilemmas. Using a Sequential Prisoner's Dilemma experiment we analyse the extent to which co - operation is conditional on first - mover co - operation, repetition, economic incentives, subject pool (United Kingdom vs. United States) and gender. We find the most important variable influencing co - operation is the first - mover's choice, supporting the argument that co - operative behaviour in social dilemmas reflects reciprocation rather than unconditional altruism. However, we also find that co - operation decreases with repetition, and reciprocation falls as its material cost rises.
