The responses of same-sex dyads of male and female Indian and Canadian students were observed in a two-choice, mixed-motive, maximizing difference game. All of the females and half of the males were aware of both their own and the other's cumulative score. The remainder of the males knew only their own score. It was found that the females in both cultures were more competitive than the males and that the Indians were more competitive than the Canadians. Knowledge only of their own score reduced the competitiveness of all the males but had a greater effect on the Indians. Other differences were found based on comparisons of conditional probabilities of responses and similarities between the behaviour of the Indians and Flemish-Belgians are noted. A critical factor accounting for the results appears to be the greater use of “tit-for-tat” responding by the Canadians. It also was suggested that the motive to avoid success may be related to the similar response patterns of the Indians and the Canadian females. |
