Developmental Characteristics And Related Influencing Factors Of Primary School Children's Equity Preference Under The Condition Of Intention Information

Fairness preference is the propensity to equal outcome and strong reaction to unequal outcomes.Fairness intention,one of the influenced factors of fairness preference,refers to the real mean underlie the fair distribution.It is difficult to distinguish between fairness outcomes and fairness intentions.Furthermore,it is not clear how fairness preference develops in primary school children and how the social situational factors affect the fairness preference when the fairnsee intention is separated.This study employed the version of mini-UG to investigate the development of primary school children fairness preference with fairness intention.The ERPs has been employed to investigate the cognitive process of the primary school children fairness preference with fairness intention.At last,this study explored the influence of resource ownership and social distance to fairness preference.Study 1:The version of mini-UG were employed to explore the development of primary school children’s fairness preference.Experiment 1 compared the high-grade primary school children’s with adults’fairness preference and tested the applicability of the version of mini-UG for primary children.Experiment 2 extended the participants to the whole primary school children and measured the primary school children’s fairness preference with fairness intention.Study 2 The ERP was used to explore the cognitive processes of fairness preference with fairness intention in primary school children.High grade primary school children were participated in the Experiment 1 to certificated whether the version of mini-UG was appropriate for the primary school children.Adults were join into Experiment 2 for the discussion of cognitive processes of the primary school children’s fairness preference with fairness intention.Study 3 Social distance and initial ownership were taken in consideration to explore the development of fairness preference of primary school in different conditions.Experiment 1 employed the version of mini-UG to investigated the difference of primary school children’s fairness preference with fairness intention in two conditions,which the distributor is familiar or strange student.Experiment 2 measured the primary school children’s fairness preference with fairness intention when the initial property was assigned to either the allocator or the recipient.The results showed that,1.The version of mini-UG is adequate for primary school children.Through the different alternative distribute results,fairness intention of primary school children have been discovered.The rejection of unfair intention is significant higher than than it of fair intention.The version of mini-UG is able to used explore the cognitive process of primary school children fairness preference.Different alternative distribute results were helpful for exploring the cognitive process of primary children.Unfair intention could elicit more negative FRN than the fair intention.And fair intention elicit more positive P300 than the unfair intention.2.With fairness intention,primary school children have fairness preference.The more unfair of the distribution result,the higher refusal rate.There is a significant age difference on the primary school children’s fairness preference.The lower-grade primary school children prefer to reject the unfair offer than other grade children.There is a significant difference between primary school children and adults.The adults have more rejection rate to fair offer than the high-grade primary school children.Fairness intention could modulate the fairness preference.With the result tends to fair,the influence of fairness intention declined.3.There is no difference between the primary school children and adults on the cognitive process of fairness preference.There is a significant separation between fairness intention and unfairness intention on the unfair offer.To the unfair offer,the FRN on the unfairness intention is more negative than fairness intention;the P300 on the fairness intention is more positive than unfairness intention.4.The initial ownership and social distance affect fairness intention.When the distributor expressed unfairness intention and the initial ownership was belong to recipient,he/she showed higher reject rate than it was belong to others.When the recipient perceives unfairness intention,the rejection rate of the further social distance is higher than it of the closer social distance.
