In the micro lab we are fascinated by how the smallest positive actions towards others can have a big impact on the actor, him or herself. We are examining this basic effect, asymmetrical aspects of it, and mechanisms that seem to underlie it. We are interested in bringing the work out of the lab and into the field. We are also fascinated by anti-social behavior and whether people are more likely to take credit for prosocial behavior vs antisocial-even when they caused both equally.
