Abstract

Do people discriminate between men and women when they have the option to punish defectors or reward cooperators? Here, we report on four pre-registered experiments that shed some light on this question. Study 1 ( N  = 544) shows that people do not discriminate between genders when they have the option to punish (reward) defectors (cooperators) in a one-shot prisoner’s dilemma with third-party punishment/reward. Study 2 ( N  = 253) extends Study 1 to a different method of punishing/rewarding: participants are asked to rate the behaviour of a defector/cooperator on a scale of 1–5 stars. In this case too, we find that people do not discriminate between genders. Study 3a ( N  = 331) and Study 3b ( N  = 310) conceptually replicate Study 2 with a slightly different gender manipulation. These latter studies show that, in situations where they do not have specific beliefs about the gender of the defector/cooperator’s partner, neither men nor women discriminate between genders.

惩罚叛逃者和奖励合作者:人们有性别歧视吗?
当人们可以选择惩罚叛逃者或奖励合作者时,他们会歧视男女吗?在这里,我们报告了四个预先注册的实验,这些实验对这个问题有所帮助。研究1 (N = 544)表明,在有第三方惩罚/奖励的一次性囚徒困境中,当人们有惩罚(奖励)叛逃者(合作者)的选择时,人们不存在性别歧视。研究2 (N = 253)将研究1扩展到一种不同的惩罚/奖励方法:参与者被要求以1 - 5星的等级对叛逃者/合作者的行为进行评分。在这种情况下,我们发现人们不会歧视性别。研究3a (N = 331)和研究3b (N = 310)在概念上复制了研究2,性别操作略有不同。这些后一项研究表明,在他们对叛逃者/合作者的伴侣的性别没有特定信念的情况下,男性和女性都没有性别歧视。
