{ "pk": 50443, "title": "Children's expectations of dominant and prestigious leaders", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Humans are enmeshed in many hierarchical relationships, such as that between a parent and child. Leaders in dominance hierarchies are typically strong and intimidating, while leaders in prestige hierarchies are respected for their expertise. In an ongoing study (N=13), we ask whether preschoolers ages 4–5 have different expectations about how dominant and prestigious leaders divide resources. Children learned about two social groups, the dominant Glerks and prestigious Zonks. Children watched a leader and subordinate from each group pick five apples and divide them into two baskets in a 5-0 or 3-2 split. We then pointed to one basket and asked children whether the leader or subordinate took that share of apples. In preliminary results, we find that children expect the dominant (76.9%) but not prestigious leader (46.2%) to take all of the apples, which suggests that children expect dominant leaders to claim a larger share of resources.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Psychology; Development; Reasoning; Social cognition; Developmental analysis" } ], "section": "Member Abstracts with Poster Presentation", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/3gt7k2d7", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Renee", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Creppy", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Princeton University", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Natalia", "middle_name": "A", "last_name": "VŽlez", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "Princeton University", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2025-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/50443/galley/38405/download/" } ] }
