Cooperative and Competitive Behavior of Cuban-American and Anglo-American Children.
Alvarez, Carlos M.; Pader, Olga F.
Journal of Psychology, v101 p265-71 Mar 1979
The cooperative behavior of 144 children in three groups--Cuban-Americans in either private or public schools and Anglo-Americans--decreased when task instructions emphasized individual rewards. Only the Anglo-American children, who maintained a significant level of competitiveness throughout, significantly increased their competitive behavior in the individual reward situation. (RL)
