Abstract: | Two experiments examined whether trait inferences and cooperative decisions are influenced by biased perceptions of the group's past success or failure in resolving the dilemma. In each experiment, Ss joined a group that had previously either succeeded or failed to provide a step-level public good. Ss were informed of (a) the number of members who had contributed to the good, and (b) the investment quota, defined as the number of contributors needed for the good to be provided. |
