Cardiovascular Consequences of Unfair Pay

Falk, Armin; Menrath, Ingo; Verde, Pablo Emilio; … - 2011

This paper investigates physiological responses to perceptions of unfair pay. In a simple principal agent experiment agents produce revenue by working on a tedious task. Principals decide how this revenue is allocated between themselves and their agents. In this environment unfairness can arise...
