The effects of winning experience and gain/loss frames on lying decisions: A lab experiment
通过实验室实验,研究了有无获胜经历的个体在损失和收益框架下的说谎行为,发现获胜经历在损失框架下增加说谎,在收益框架下减少说谎,其中个体的应得感是关键因素。
Abstract Using a laboratory experiment, we examine lying behavior among subjects, both with and without winning experience, in loss and gain frames. Our findings reveal that winning experience results in increased lying behavior in the loss frame but decreased lying behavior in the gain frame. A key factor in understanding this outcome is the subject's sense of deservingness. Winning a competition heightens subjects' feelings of deservingness, influencing the subjects' lying decisions. Additionally, we found that winners are more likely to cheat in the loss frame than in the gain frame; no similar effect was observed among subjects without winning experience.
