Beyond Reciprocity: How Shared Social Identities Fosters Ingroup Trust

Poster Session VI

Keyword: Trust

Abstract: We tested how shared awareness of social identities between ingroup members contributes to ingroup favoritism. Despite ingroup and outgroup trustees having similar expected payoffs, participants trusted ingroup members more. This ingroup favoritism was accentuated when there was a shared awareness of social identities.
