| Abstract: | This paper examines the effects of providing an explanation on procedural fairness, distributive fairness, and task motivation under both favourable and unfavourable outcome conditions. Participants arrayed in three-person groups made a selection decision concerning which of two candidates would be better at brainstorming task, with the understanding that the chosen candidate would be added to their group. The experimenter could choose to uphold or overrule the group's decision, creating the manipulation of outcome favourability. The results showed that the outcome favourability manipulation, and participant's self-reported outcome expectation, moderated the effects of providing an explanation, such that an explanation has the most positive effects in light of unexpected, unfavourable outcomes. |
