In a bargaining game where one person proposes a split of $100 and another person can accept or reject it, an individual with a stronger reciprocity motive (a larger R value) will have a lower minimum monetary amount they are willing to accept compared to someone with a weaker reciprocity motive (a smaller, but still positive, R value).

Analyzing Reciprocal Behavior
In a scenario where a Proposer offers to split $100 with a Responder, the Responder can either accept the split or reject it, in which case both receive nothing. Consider two potential Responders: Responder A has a reciprocity motive strength of R=0, while Responder B has a very high positive reciprocity motive strength (a large R value). If the Proposer offers the Responder $5, which of the following outcomes is most likely?
Comparing Responses Based on Reciprocity
In a bargaining game where one person proposes a split of $100 and another person can accept or reject it, an individual with a stronger reciprocity motive (a larger R value) will have a lower minimum monetary amount they are willing to accept compared to someone with a weaker reciprocity motive (a smaller, but still positive, R value).
In a bargaining scenario, a Responder's willingness to accept or reject an offer is influenced by their reciprocity motive, which is quantified by a parameter R. A higher R value indicates a stronger desire to punish unfair behavior. Match each player description, defined by their R value, to the corresponding behavioral tendency.

Inferring Reciprocity from Behavior
In a bargaining game where one person proposes how to split $100, a second person (the Responder) can either accept or reject the offer. If rejected, both get nothing. The Responder's decision is influenced by a 'reciprocity motive' (R), where a higher R value indicates a stronger desire to punish offers perceived as unfair. Consider three Responders with different R values. Arrange these Responders in order from the lowest minimum offer they would be willing to accept to the highest.
In a bargaining game where one person's decision-making is influenced by their attitude towards fairness, a reciprocity motive strength of R=0 indicates that the individual's behavior is purely ____.
In a bargaining situation, a Proposer offers a Responder $20 out of a total of $100. The established social norm for a fair split is $50. The Responder's decision is based on comparing the monetary gain from accepting the offer against the satisfaction derived from rejecting an unfair offer. The satisfaction from rejecting is calculated as
R * (Fair Offer - Actual Offer), where R is the strength of the Responder's reciprocity motive. The Responder will reject the offer if the satisfaction from rejecting is greater than the monetary gain from accepting. What is the threshold value of R, above which the Responder will choose to reject the $20 offer?
