Blake & McAuliffe (2011) Find your Group #, and answer the associated questions
For this activity: • You should record your answers as a group • Only answer the questions assigned to your group # • Be prepared to share your answers with the class
Group 1: Introduction • 1) What does this experiment aim to investigate? • 2) What is new about this experiment’s design, that is not found in past studies? • 3) What predictions were made about participants’ responses to disadvantageous inequity (DI) and advantageous inequity (AI)?
Group 2: Method • 1) What ages were the participants, and were they familiar to one another? • 2) Describe the experience of a participant who plays the “decider” during the procedure • A) if they were in the DI condition, and then • B) if they were in the AI condition. Include a description of how the apparatus works. • 3) How was reaction time measured?
Group 3: Results • 1) In one sentence, how did age relate to rejections of DI trials? (See section 2.2.1.) • i.e., when the decider had 1 candy and the other child had 4, did the decider’s age influence whether or not that trial was rejected? • 2) In one sentence, how did age relate to rejections of AI trials? (See 2.2.2.) • When the decider had 4, and the other child had 1
Group 4: Results • 1) What major difference was noted between 8-year-olds and younger children, when considering aversion to inequity? (See section 2.2.3.) • 2) Regarding reaction time, do eight-year-olds differ from younger children when deciding to accept or reject inequity? (See 2.2.4.)
Group 5: Discussion • 1) The authors state that this experiment provides three new contributions to this field of study. What are these three contributions? • 2) According to the authors, is our aversion to inequity based on biological mechanisms, social mechanisms, or both? Explain.
