Description
Summary:Two studies were conducted to systematically assess the establishment of reciprocal interactions by varying the type of action involved in the interaction. The experimental series was carried out with university students between 18 and 28 years old, 9 men and 7 women. In the first experiment, the actions involved could be seen as helpful for those who received their effect, in the second experiment the actions involved could be considered as aversive or annoying for those who received the effect. In general, it was observed that in both cases reciprocity was established, although it was established to a greater extent, with the actions that involved the aid. Conversely, the effect of the interactive history created by the experiment acquires greater relevance with the aversive or annoying actions than with the help ones.
