Voluntary Blame-Taking Behavior: Kinship before Friendship and no Effect of Incentives

Listed in IISH Dataverse and ODISSEI Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.34894/2h1zbp

Inspired by theories of prosocial behavior, we tested the effect of relationship status and incentives on intended voluntary blame-taking in two experiments (Experiment 2 was pre-registered).

Description

Participants (NE1 = 211, NE2 = 232) imagined a close family member, a close friend, or an acquaintance and read a scenario that described this person committing a minor traffic offence. The person offered either a monetary, social or no incentive for taking the blame.

Participants indicated their willingness to take the blame and reasons for and against blame-taking. Overall, a sizable proportion of participants indicated to be willing to take the blame (E1: 57.8%; E2: 34.9%). Blame-taking rates were higher for family members than close friends or acquaintances in both experiments, as expected.

Unexpectedly, there was no difference between a close friend and an acquaintance in Experiment 2. Social incentives did not have an effect on voluntary blame-taking in either experiment. Neither did we find an interaction between relationship status and incentives.

The results highlight the importance of kin relationships in the context of voluntary blame-taking.
