Abstract: The study aimed to explore the effect of power and task frame on risk preference of self-other decision making. Undergraduate subjects primed with high or low power were asked to either make decisions for themselves or make decisions for others on a risk preference task under gain or loss task frameworks. The results showed that: 1)In making decision for others, subjects primed with high power performed stronger risk preference, but in making decision for themselves, there were no differences between high power primed group and low power primed group; 2)in making decision for others, subjects' risk preferences between gain frames and loss frames had no significant differences, but in making decision for themselves, the subjects' risk preference under loss frames is stronger than gain frames; 3)subjects primed with low power showed stronger risk preference in making decision for themselves than making decision for others under loss frames, but showed no significant differences under gain frames; no matter in gain frames or in loss frames, subjects primed with high power showed no significant differences in self-other risk decision.

Key words: power, task frames, the decision maker' roles, risk preferences

摘要: 采用情境回忆任务启动被试的权力,并引入收益和损失两种任务框架,综合考察权力高低、任务框架对自我决策和为他人决策时风险偏好的影响。结果表明:(1)在为他人决策中,启动高权力被试有更强的风险偏好,而自我决策中,高、低权力启动组被试风险偏好上无显著差异;(2)在为他人决策中,被试在收益框架和损失框架下的风险偏好差异不显著,而在自我决策中,损失框架下的风险偏好显著高于收益框架;(3)低权力启动的被试,在损失框架下,为他人决策的风险偏好要小于自我决策,而在收益框架下差异不显著;高权力启动的被试无论在收益框架还是损失框架,自我-他人风险决策都不存在显著差异。
