“…The idea that the basis of fairness-related decisions changes developmentally is compatible with the general idea of an "outcome to intention" shift in children's moral judgments, which has been posited in literature on moral development (e.g., Cushman, Sheketoff, Wharton, & Carey, 2013;Helwig, Zelazo, & Wilson, 2001;Zelazo, Helwig, & Lau, 1996). We are aware of seven studies to date that have used the mini-ultimatum game with children and adolescents (Bueno-Guerra, Leiva, Colell, & Call, 2016;Gummerum & Chu, 2014;Güroğlu, van den Bos, & Crone, 2009;Güroğlu et al, 2011;Pelligra, Isoni, Fadda, & Doneddu, 2015;Sutter, 2007;Wittig, Jensen, & Tomasello, 2013).…”

The notion of what constitutes fairness has been assumed to change during childhood, in line with a marked shift from outcome-based to intention-based moral reasoning. However, the precise developmental profile of such a shift is still subject to debate. This study sought to determine the age at which the perceived intentions of others begin to influence fairnessrelated decision-making in children (aged 6-8 and 9-11) and adolescents (aged 14-15) in the context of the mini-ultimatum game. The mini-ultimatum game has a forced-choice design whereby a proposer has to select one of two pre-determined offers that a responder can either accept or reject. Due to these constraints the procedure measures sensitivity to unfair intentions in addition to unfair outcomes. Participants had to make judgments about how likely they would be to reject various offers, how fair they judged these offers to be, and the emotion they experienced when thinking about the offer. Contrary to previous published reports, we found that even 6-to 8-year-olds employed a sophisticated notion of fairness that took into account the alternatives the proposer had available to them. Crucially, decisionmaking did not differ as a function of age. A further, and novel, aim was to trace the developmental origins of temporal asymmetries in judgments about fairness by testing the implications of adopting a past or a future temporal perspective. Across all ages, we found no evidence that fairness-based decision-making varies as a function of temporal location.

“…A previous study has shown that individuals with ASD indeed rejected unfair offer 21 relatively more often than those with typical development (TD) in the mini-UG. This result is relatively comparable with other psychiatric diseases with flexibility deficit 22 ; for example, compared with controls, alcohol-dependent individuals rejected unfair offers more frequently 23 .…”

Inflexible daily behaviour is associated with the ability to control an automatic reaction in autism spectrum disorder

Inflexible behaviours in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) broadly obstruct social communication. Meanwhile, flexibility implicates cognitive control to resolve socially conflicting situations; however, it remains unclear how people with ASD behave in the face of these conflicts in this respect. We used the ultimatum game (UG) and the implicit-association test (IAT) to examine goal-directed/economic flexibility, both of which involve conflict and cognitive control. In addition, we used the Detail and Flexibility Questionnaire (DFlex) to measure inflexible everyday behaviour with diminished cognitive control and attention shifting. We observed the decreased flexibility in participants with ASD (DFlex and IAT); further, their IAT scores positively correlated with DFlex. However, in the UG, contrary to our prediction, participants with ASD accepted unfair offers more frequently than TD. These results suggest that assessing the automatic/attention processing level with the IAT could be a useful approach to study behavioural flexibility among ASD compared with the UG, which might comprise multiple response strategies besides economic rationality. Overall, the severity of inflexible daily behaviours in people with ASD may be associated with a reduced flexible attitude at an automatic level, altered attention processing and decreased cognitive control.

Τα τυπικά οικονομικά μοντέλα της ανθρώπινης συμπεριφοράς υποθέτουν ότι οι άνθρωποι αλληλεπιδρούν στη βάση του στενού ατομικού συμφέροντος και των αποτελεσμάτων που είναι ευνοϊκά για τους ίδιους. Ευρήματα από το χώρο της ψυχολογίας, όμως, υποστηρίζουν ότι οι άνθρωποι ενδιαφέρονται εξίσου για τα αποτελέσματα των άλλων. Η δικαιοσύνη μπορεί λοιπόν να αποτελεί γνώμονα στις αποφάσεις τους. Το δίλημμα ατομικού συμφέροντος-δικαιοσύνης ενυπάρχει στο ευρέως μελετημένο παίγνιο του τελεσιγράφου. Το ερώτημα που θα μας απασχολήσει είναι πώς αναπτύσσεται η αίσθηση της δικαιοσύνης έναντι του ατομικού συμφέροντος κατά τη διαδικασία της ανάπτυξης του παιδιού. Απαντήσεις θα δοθούν με βάση συστηματική ανασκόπηση της βιβλιογραφίας κατά την οποία αναγνωρίστηκαν 35 άρθρα με δείγμα παιδιών στο παίγνιο του τελεσιγράφου και τη μετα-ανάλυση επιμέρους ευρημάτων. Τα αποτελέσματα θα συζητηθούν συνολικά σε σχέση με την κονσενσουαλιστική προσέγγιση (Arvanitis, 2015) στις διαπραγματεύσεις.
