Costly third-party punishment in young children

Cognition, 2015
Human adults engage in costly third-party punishment of unfair behavior, but the developmental origins of this behavior are unknown. Here we investigate costly third-party punishment in 5- and 6-year-old children. Participants were asked to accept (enact) or reject (punish) proposed allocations of resources between a pair of absent, anonymous children.

The development of corporal third-party punishment

Cognition, 2019
Previous research has demonstrated that toddlers are willing to punish those who harm others. This work, however, has predominantly focused on punishment in the form of resource reduction-taking away a resource or withholding access to a resource from an antisocial other.

Compassion magnifies third-party punishment.

Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 2019
The last decades of research have provided overwhelming evidence that compassion fosters a vast range of behaviors toward reducing suffering of others. In this regard, compassion has been described as a prosocial tendency par excellence, fostering helping behavior across a variety of social situations.

The Emerging Neuroscience of Third-Party Punishment

Trends in Neurosciences, 2016
Although it is far too early to say that cognitive neuroscience will have any direct impact on how we sentence criminals, patterns are nevertheless emerging that suggest a neural framework for punishment that could one day have important legal and social consequences.

Third-party punishment as a costly signal of trustworthiness

Nature, 2016
Third-party punishment (TPP), in which unaffected observers punish selfishness, promotes cooperation by deterring defection. But why should individuals choose to bear the costs of punishing? We present a game theoretic model of TPP as a costly signal of trustworthiness.

Electrophysiological correlates of third-party punishment: ERP study

Neuroscience Letters, 2023
Human societies benefit from social norms that increase cooperation and support social order. Hence, the understanding of effective mechanisms enforcing norms is crucial. One of such mechanisms is "third-party punishment" (TPP) - a form of social punishment that could be delivered by a third-party, not directly affected by the actions of the norm ...

Reflexive Intergroup Bias in Third-Party Punishment

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2015
Humans show a rare tendency to punish norm-violators who have not harmed them directly-a behavior known as third-party punishment. Research has found that third-party punishment is subject to intergroup bias, whereby people punish members of the out-group more severely than the in-group.

Third-party punishment and counter-punishment in one-shot interactions

Economics Letters, 2014
This paper presents experimental evidence from a simple three-person game showing that many individuals are willing to avenge third-party punishment in one-shot interactions. The threat of counter-punishment has a large negative effect on the willingness of third parties to punish selfish behavior.

The neural basis of third-party punishment

2008
Legal decision-making in criminal contexts includes two essential functions performed by impartial “third parties:” assessing responsibility and determining an appropriate punishment. To explore the neural underpinnings of these processes, we scanned subjects with fMRI while they determined the appropriate punishment for crimes that varied in ...

Third Party Punishment and Criminal Behaviour

2013
In this paper we report the results of two experiments, each one comprising two designs (a prisoner dilemma and a third party punishment; Fehr et al., 2004), conducted with a sample of University students and a sample of Camorra prison inmates, both coming from the same Italian region (Campania).
