在公共物品博弈中，一个经典的社会困境已经被证明强烈依赖于惩罚或制裁搭便车者的存在与否。此外，在决策者合作的程度上，似乎存在值得注意的个体差异。在这里，我们的目标是把这两条研究路线结合在一起。首先，我们预测，惩罚的存在和高气质的HonestyHumility（如在HonestyHumility，不诚实，eXtraversion，不诚实，尽责性，对经验的开放性人格模型中概念化的）应该产生更高的贡献。第二，也是更重要的一点，我们期待的是一种互动，只有那些诚实谦逊度低的人才会将他们的行为以惩罚的存在与否为条件，从而战略性地使用合作。根据这一假设，两个实验（其中一个是纵向设计）的结果证实，当引入惩罚时，决策者转向更高贡献的程度取决于他们的诚实谦逊的倾向水平。版权所有（c）2011约翰威利父子有限公司
Contributions in the public goods gamea classical social dilemma situationhave been shown to depend strongly on the presence versus absence of punishment or sanctions for free riders. Also, there appear to be noteworthy individual differences in the degree to which decision makers cooperate. Herein, we aimed to bring these two lines of research together. Firstly, we predicted that both presence of punishment and high dispositional HonestyHumility (as conceptualized in the HonestyHumility, Emotionality, eXtraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Openness to experience model of personality) should yield higher contributions. Secondly, and more importantly, we expected an interaction, such that only those low in HonestyHumility would condition their behaviour on the presence versus absence of punishment, thus employing cooperation strategically. In line with the hypothesis, the results of two experiments (one of which comprised a longitudinal design) corroborated that the degree to which decision makers shift towards higher contributions when punishment is introduced depends on their dispositional level of HonestyHumility.
