It has been proved that people are not completely selfish no matter whether it is material exchange or emotional exchange in human practical life.Individuals will not only consider their own interests,but also strive for fairness in social groups.Heart of beauty in everyone.High face attractiveness has a positive impact on all aspects of social life,such as human social interaction,job search,marketing and intimacy,resulting in the phenomenon of "facial value" that is too sought after in the current society,which has caused the attention of psychological researchers.People prefer attractive faces,because highly attractive faces cause happiness.However,researchers have found that the role of face attractiveness may be limited.The importance of beauty is exaggerated by the media,which has a bad effect on young people's aesthetics and values,and may cause some misunderstandings about appearance.In our study,ultimatum game,one of the classic experimental paradigms of current psychology research fair,as an experimental method and then high school students as the research object.We aim to explore face attractiveness and its resource conditions and emotional states as independent variables,how will the high school students react in the context of the ultimatum game? This study assumed that:(1)The high school student group showed an obviously preference for fairness.,and this preference will significantly reduce due to the high face attractiveness of the distributor in the ultimatum game.(2)Under the conditions of high and low resource values,high resource value will reduce the influence of face attractiveness on fair preference;(3)Under the condition of calmness and anger,anger will reduce the influence of face attractiveness on fair preference.One preliminary experiment and three formal experiments were performed in this study.Pre-experiment: 54 high school students were recruited to evaluate the face attractiveness of face pictures.Experiment 1: 80 high school students were recruited,and a 2 × 5 in-subject design was used.The facial attractiveness and the ultimatum game allocation scheme were used as independent variables.The ultimatum game acceptance rate and response time were used as the dependent variables.Experiment 2: Recruiting 104 high school students,using 2 × 2 × 5 in-experiment design,with facial attractiveness,resource value and the ultimatum game allocation scheme as independent variables,and finally acceptance rate and response time in the ultimatum game as dependent variables.Experiment 3: Recruiting 168 high school students,using a 2 × 2 × 5 mixed experiment design,using face stimulus and ultimatum game as the internal variables of the participants,and emotional state as the inter-subject variables.The acceptance rate and response time of the subjects in the ultimatum game were dependent variables.The conclusions of the study as following:(1)High school students showed a clear tendency for fair preference.In the ultimatum game,the fairness of the distribution plan has a significant impact on the acceptance rate of high school students.The fairer the distribution plan,the higher the acceptance rate.(2)Face attractiveness could significantly affect the fair preference of high school students.Under the condition of high attractive faces,the acceptance rate is higher.The beauty of the face has a significant premium effect.(3)The value of resources could significantly affect the fairness preferences of high school students.In the ultimatum game,the acceptance rate of participants significantly increased when the value of resources increased.(4)Emotions significantly affected the fair preferences of high school students.In the ultimatum game,the acceptance rate of individuals under anger is low.(5)The interaction between the attractiveness of faces and the distribution plan is significant.The influence of face attractiveness on the fair preference of high school students increased with the increase of the fairness of the distribution scheme,but when the fairness of the distribution scheme reaches a certain level,the influence of face attractiveness on the fair preference of high school students decreased.(6)The interaction between face attractiveness and emotion is significant.Compared with calm emotions,anger reduces the influence of face attractiveness on high school students' preferences.(7)The interaction between face attractiveness and resource value is not significant.According to previous research,we considered that there have two reasons.One is that the difference between 100 yuan and 10 yuan is too small.The another is that in the laboratory context,Tokens stimulated a lack of real gain,which led to subjects being less serious.
