Paul Hanges reported on a number of experiments in the 1990s related to procedural justice experiments where the participant was given the opportunity to pay themselves from a known but seemingly uncounted hand full of money. The amount of effort required of the participant was manipulated. In some cases they took more money than they should and in some cases less.

Subject: [OB-LIST] Inducing participants to violate trust
To:
OB@aomlists.pace.eduHi OB-Listers,
I am looking for experimental studies that involve inducing participants to violate the trust of another person (another participant, a confederate, or the experimenter themselves).
Thus far, I have found only three examples of induced-violation manipulations:
- Wallace, Exline & Baumeister (2008), where participants are privately "singled out to assist the experimenter" by defecting in a prisoner's dilemma game.
- De Jong, Peters, De Cremer & Vranken (2002), also induced a PD-game violation with instructions to the participants
- Kelln & Ellard (1999), where participants were led to believe that they had broken a piece of experimental equipment they had promised to treat carefully
I am sure there are others out there. Any suggestions or citations would be gratefully accepted.
All the best,
Lukas
