Attribution and commitment in different types of exchange.
Gerbasi, Alexandra.

Attribution and commitment in different types of exchange. - 202 p.

Adviser: Karen S. Cook.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2007.

In this dissertation, I integrate attribution theories into exchange theory to help us further understand commitment. I demonstrate how the level of uncertainty in the type of exchange, the level of interdependence and the behavior of both partners impact traditional attribution predictions. I show these factors influence the focal actors' perceptions of their partners' trustworthiness. Finally, I examine how all of these factors impact the level of commitment between partners. I examine three types of direct exchange: binding negotiated exchange, non-binding negotiated exchange and reciprocal exchange. I also examine the effect of two different levels of positive exchange: high and low levels of positive exchange. An experimental design with simulated partners is used to control for partner behavior. One hundred and fifty subjects participated in five experimental conditions.

520 $a In this dissertation, I integrate attribution theories into exchange theory to help us further understand commitment. I demonstrate how the level of uncertainty in the type of exchange, the level of interdependence and the behavior of both partners impact traditional attribution predictions. I show these factors influence the focal actors' perceptions of their partners' trustworthiness. Finally, I examine how all of these factors impact the level of commitment between partners. I examine three types of direct exchange: binding negotiated exchange, non-binding negotiated exchange and reciprocal exchange. I also examine the effect of two different levels of positive exchange: high and low levels of positive exchange. An experimental design with simulated partners is used to control for partner behavior. One hundred and fifty subjects participated in five experimental conditions.
520 $a The results suggest that it is necessary to include the behavior of all of the actors involved in the exchange to understand the nature of the causal attributions the focal actors make. Results also show that when actors interact with highly cooperative partners, dispositional causal attributions are significantly associated with perceived trustworthiness. This effect is magnified by uncertainty. Dispositional causal attributions are also significantly associated with commitment when actors interact with highly cooperative partners.
520 $a The results suggest that we should consider the perceived uncertainty of actors rather than using the assumed structural uncertainty present in the type of exchange. The results presented in this dissertation, particularly in the low positive exchange condition support a stronger effect for perceived uncertainty rather than structural uncertainty. My results also highlight the effect of varying interdependence in reciprocal exchange. When there is a low level of interdependence, non-reciprocity is viewed as being motivated by the situation. The prevalence of situational causal attributions results in more positive outcomes than one would expect. Finally, I point to future directions for this research. I suggest that the incorporation of causal attributions can help us further understand perceptions of fairness, justice and affect in exchange situations. In addition, an important arena for further investigation is to understand how power differences may mediate causal attributions and relational outcomes.
