Abstract :
This study examined the effects of endowments on individuals´ reciprocity decisions by trust game. The results demonstrated that individuals´ reciprocity decisions will be influenced by resources they own. Endowments mainly influence the perception of trust and amount returned from trusted parties. The trust perception of others is different when they have different endowments. Then, people tend to reciprocate more when they have more resources.
