Neural mechanisms underlying social conformity in an ultimatum game
When individuals' actions are incongruent with those of the group they belong to, they may change their initial behavior in order to conform to the group norm. This phenomenon is known as "social conformity." In the present study, we used event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to investigate brain activity in response to group opinion during an ultimatum game. Results showed...
متن کاملPeer influence: neural mechanisms underlying in-group conformity
People often conform to the behavior of others with whom they identify. However, it is unclear what fundamental mechanisms underlie this type of conformity. Here, we investigate the processes mediating in-group conformity by using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Participants completed a perceptual decision-making task while undergoing fMRI, during which they were exposed to the ju...
متن کاملThe Social Ultimatum Game
The Ultimatum Game is a key exemplar that shows how human play often deviates from “rational” strategies suggested by game-theoretic analysis. One explanation is that humans cannot put aside the assumption of being in a multi-player multiround environment that they are accustomed to in the real world. We introduce the Social Ultimatum Game, a multi-player multi-round version of the classical Ul...
متن کاملSocial Learning in the Ultimatum Game
In the ultimatum game, two players divide a sum of money. The proposer suggests how to split and the responder can accept or reject. If the suggestion is rejected, both players get nothing. The rational solution is that the responder accepts even the smallest offer but humans prefer fair share. In this paper, we study the ultimatum game by a learning-mutation process based on quantal response e...
متن کاملSocial Capital’s Role in the Ultimatum Game
Discrepancies between empirical data and economic theory in ultimatum bargaining have been a subject of interest for over 30 years. Previous experiments have observed individuals walking away from essentially positive profits in these games. My paper adds to the existing body of research and attempts to explain these observations by investigating non-monetary aspects of payoff functions. Since ...
