Voice and Culture: A Prospect Theory Approach

Abstract: International audienceThe present study examines the congruence of individuals’ minimum preferred amounts of voice with the prospect theory value functionacross nine countries. Accounting for previously ignored minimum preferred amounts of voice and actual voice amounts integral to testingthe steepness of gain and loss functions explicated in prospect theory, we use curve fitting to show that ratings of procedural justice fit prospecttheory’s value function specifically. Further, we investigate the form of thi… Show more

“…The justice evaluations across different reward levels show a negative effect of under-rewards (p < .001 for all under rewards), and a positive effect of over-rewards (when over-rewarded by 10% the difference is not significant (p = .106), when over-rewarded by 20% or 30%, p < .01) on justice evaluations. This result replicates prior research on asymmetries in justice evaluations, with under-reward being experienced more profoundly than over-reward [15, 28]. …”

“…The results from the experiment show that unstable rewards are associated with lower justice evaluations, and that the presentation order of unstable rewards also matters; the primacy effect is more prominent than the recency effect (e.g. [28]). The results also demonstrate the asymmetric effects between under-rewards and over-rewards.…”

“…Employees from high power distance cultures do not seem as troubled by an absence of voice when compared to employees from low power distance cultures. Research on the value function of voice extends this finding and expands our understanding of the role of culture in how voice is valued (e.g., Hunton, Hall, & Price, 1998; Paddock et al, in press; Price, Hall, Van den Bos, Hunton, Lovett, & Tippett, 2001). For instance, Price and colleagues found individuals expect greater amounts of voice (i.e., have higher reference points) in low power distance cultures (e.g., Great Britain, Netherlands) than individuals in high power distance cultures (e.g., Mexico), but the impact of that voice (the shape of the value function) does not change much by culture.…”

“…However, there is limited knowledge about the characteristics that impact financial (share price) predictions. Models such as prospect theory (Kahneman & Tversky, 1979) are frequently cited in behavioural finance (Barberis & Thaler, 2003;Camerer, Loewenstein, & Rabin, 2011;Dhami, 2016;Paddock et al, 2015). Herbert Simon's model of bounded rationality may be able to provide more understanding in the context of financial markets, for which incomplete information is inherent to the subject matter.…”
