Abstract

Previous work has established individual differences in preferences for so-called "finesse" laden work strategies versus "brute-force" strategies. However, this work has focused on scenarios in which competing strategies are apparent to the worker. The proposed work will investigate preferences for more ecologically valid, finesse-strategy seeking behavior.
