Sharpley, Christopher F. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1987
The reactions of 84 elementary students to the hypothetical administration of rewards were studied. The subjects were interviewed under two experimental conditions: direct contingent rewards (DCR) and implicit rewards (IR). Results showed that students did not attribute others with the same sense of fairness in regard to IR conditions. (JAZ)
