Human interaction as a type of variable
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 31 July 2008
Summary
A review of empirical findings which differentiated between the effects of social and non-social variables in the determination of human conduct found non-social variables most frequently to have been superior. A two-factor comparision of the impact of money and social cues, discriminative stimuli, and rewards from delinquent peers on incarcerated juvenile delinquents found money to be the more powerful determinant of cheating behaviour (P < 0.001). It is suggested that explanations of human behaviour should not ignore the effects of non-social variables.
