Group status, minorities and trust
通过实验研究低群体地位和相对群体规模对信任、可信度及歧视的影响，发现低地位和少数群体成员士气低落，但低地位者对高地位者更信任，少数群体对多数群体更可信。
Abstract We present the results of an experiment measuring the impact of low group status and relative group size on trust, trustworthiness and discrimination. Subjects interact with insiders and outsiders in trust games and periodically enter markets where they can trade group membership. Low status and minority subjects have low morale: that is, they comparatively dislike being low status and being minority subjects. Group discrimination against low status and minority subjects is unchanged. However, low status subjects are deferential to high status subjects in terms of comparatively higher trust, and minority subjects are deferential to majority subjects in terms of comparatively higher trustworthiness.
