Abstract

This paper studies minority influence on individual tolerance to certain instances of fraud. Using an experimental approach, we divided 100 students from a business school into 25 groups and compared the individual trajectory of each group according to whether they were in a group composed of only fraud-intolerant individuals (control), in a group with one fraud-tolerant individual (minority), or in a group with two fraud-tolerant individuals (equality). Our results indicate that individual fraud tolerance increases significantly after a group discussion in which only one more fraud-tolerant individual participates, demonstrating the magnitude of the minority influence on the trajectory of individuals who were initially fraud intolerant.

当少数人的影响足以增加对欺诈的容忍度:一项实验小组研究
本文研究了少数群体对个体对某些欺诈行为容忍度的影响。采用实验方法,我们将商学院的100名学生分为25组,并根据他们是在只有不容忍欺诈的人(对照组)、有一个容忍欺诈的人(少数组)还是有两个容忍欺诈的人(平等组)的组中,比较每组的个人轨迹。我们的研究结果表明,在一个只有一个欺诈容忍个体参与的小组讨论之后,个体的欺诈容忍显著增加,这表明了少数人对最初欺诈不容忍个体轨迹的影响程度。
