The Power of Reciprocity

Abstract
In two experiments, the existence and extent of altruistic reciprocity is exploredin the context of a simple experimental game, “the sequential dictator.” Findings show that altruistic reciprocity is frequent and robust, and the reciprocity norm does not erode if stakes are raised. Implications of the findings for social theory and further empirical research are discussed.
