Title: Social Preferences under Chronic Stress: Women Talk the Talk but Don’t Walk the Walk
Abstract:
Even though chronic stress is a pervasive problem in contemporary societies, its effects on decision making have hardly been investigated. We focus on the relation between self-reported chronic stress and self-reported and behaviorally shown social preferences. As chronic stress puts strain on executive control, we expect it to affect cooperation if people hold selfish preferences. We measured chronic stress with the Trier Inventory for Chronic Stress (TICS). To determine social preferences participants played a double anonymous dictator game. To control for the robustness of social preferences we employed a 2x2x2x2 design, manipulating four variables: the frame (Give to Recipient vs. Take from Recipient), the decision maker’s gender (Female vs. Male), the recipient’s gender (Female vs. Male) and the nature of the reward (Real vs. Hypothetical). Results show that perceived chronic stress is not significantly related to social preferences in monetarily rewarded dictator decisions for either gender. However, women’s preferences displayed for hypothetical rewards are negatively correlated to chronic stress levels. For men, we do not see such treatment effects. Our finding suggests that, while chronic stress leaves social preferences unaffected in an incentive compatible task, it fosters what could be interpreted as a decrease in self-image promotion in women.
主讲人简介：
Prof. Dr. Christiane Schwieren is full professor of Organizational Behavior at Ruprecht Karls University of Heidelberg.
Before coming to Heidelberg in 2009, she held positions as assistant professor of economics at Universitat Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona (Spain) and as Post-Doctoral Fellow at the University of Mannheim (SFB 504). In 2006 she was a 3-months visitor at Kyoto Sangyo University in Japan.
Christiane Schwieren studied psychology (Diploma in 1999), Political Science and History (MA in 1997) at the University of Heidelberg. She did her PhD in economics at Maastricht University in 2003. For her research she received several scholarships and grants (e.g., Marie-Curie pre-doctoral scholarship, grants from the initiative of excellence, the German research foundation and the BMBF).
Her current research focus is on the effects of heterogeneity of actors on behavior, with relation to age, gender and personality. Furthermore, she is interested in how stress affects economic decision making. Methodologically, she uses experimental methods and collaborates with neuroscientists and cognitive psychologists in neuroeconomic research. She publishes in psychological and economic journals, e.g. Journal of Economic Psychology, Public Choice, Small Group Research, or Journal of Economic Behavior and Decision Making
