Below is a sample of experiments which give you an idea about how we approach our research questions.
Just click on the titles to see demos of the experiments.
Individual Responsibility in Different Group Structures
In this experiment, we investigate how attributions of responsibility to individuals in a group are influenced by how the contributions of each group member combine to determine the group outcome.
Intuitive Physics and Causal Attribution
In a series of experiments, we investigate the hypothesis that people's intuitive understanding of physics guides their causal attributions. You can have a look at the paper here.
Modeling Complex Probabilistic Inference
In these experiments, we look at how people make latent trait inferences from complex patterns of evidence. You can have a look at the paper here.
Rational Order Effects in Responsibility Attribution
In this experiment, we looked at order effects in group contexts in which individual agents contribute sequentially. You can have a look at the paper here.
Skill and Blame
In this study, we investigated how skill and performance affect responsibility attributions in a team context. You can have a look at the paper here.
The Role of Intentions vs. Outcomes in Responsibility Attributions
This study investigated to what extent people's responsibility attributions are influenced by intendend versus actual outcomes. You can have a look at the paper here.
